Easy 5-minute Golden Milk

3 cups milk (of choice - dairy or dairy-free (coconut milk, almond milk, oat milk, cashew milk, etc.))

½ tsp ground turmeric powder (or ½ tablespoon fresh grated turmeric root)

½ tsp ground ginger powder (or 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger root)

¼ tsp ground cardamom powder

¼ tsp ground cinnamon powder

⅛ tsp black pepper (freshly cracked)

1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

1 Tbsp honey (optional; or another sweetener of choice (maple syrup, agave nectar, a sugar-free syrup), adjust to taste or omit)

Add all ingredients (minus the sweetener) to a small saucepan, whisk well, and warm it up over medium heat.If you’re using raw milk, you could bring the mixture to a boil to pasteurize it first, before adding the spices.
Once warm enough, remove the golden milk turmeric tea from the heat, taste it, and adjust the sweetness to your preferred flavor. Enjoy!For a lighter frothy golden milk latte, use a milk frother in the saucepan before serving it.
If you have any leftovers, allow them to cool to room temperature and then store the milk in the refrigerator for a further 2-3 days. You can reheat it on the stove or in a microwave, stirring well.As well as drinking it alone, you could also use this tasty yellow milk to pour over your morning cereal/granola, use in oatmeal, add to smoothies, and more. You can also enjoy it warm or chilled.
