Golden Milk

This traditional Indian beverage has amazing health benefits including anti-inflammatory properties, immune-boosting antioxidants, and sleep-inducing amino acids.

Ingredients:

  • 1 c. unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk
  • 2 tsp. honey plus additional to taste (to make vegan, swap maple syrup)
  • 1-1/2 tsp. almond butter
  • 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon plus additional for serving
  • 1/4 tsp. ground turmeric
  • 1/8 tsp. ground ginger
  • Optional additions: tiny pinch ground black pepper, cardamom, or cloves

Cooking Instructions:

  1. Combine the milk, honey, almond butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, turmeric, ginger, and any optional spices in a small saucepan.
  2. Heat over medium until warmed through, whisking briskly so that the almond butter does not stick to the bottom and the spices incorporate. Do not let boil. Pour into a mug and enjoy.

To Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container, such as a mason jar, for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

To Reheat: Warm on the stove, stirring to recombine the spices and almond butter.
