Golden Milk

Golden Milk is a warm and comforting non-alcoholic drink inspired by Ayurvedic tradition. It combines the colour and flavour of turmeric with warming spices such as ginger and cinnamon, all in a plant-based milk base. A fragrant option for chilly evenings.

Ingredients

  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 20 cl Plant-based milk (almond, coconut or soya)
  • 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon Honey

Method

  1. In a small saucepan, pour the plant-based milk and heat it over medium heat without bringing it to a boil.
  2. Stir in the turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper. Mix well to dissolve the spices into the milk.
  3. If you like, add honey or maple syrup to lightly sweeten the drink.
  4. For an extra touch of flavour, add the vanilla extract.
  5. Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the spices from sticking to the bottom.
  6. Use a fine strainer to filter the Golden Milk to remove any spice residues. Pour the drink into a cup.
  7. Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top for decoration.
