This specific recipe makes a decadent, full bodied and rich Golden Milk that is so fulfilling (AND SO DAMN DELISH) it can be consumed as a snack!


Ingredients:

Instructions:

  • To a small saucepan, add coconut milk, almond milk, ground turmeric, ground ginger, cinnamon stick, coconut oil, and sweetener of choice (I usually add 3 Tbsp of honey)

  • Whisk to combine and warm over medium heat. Heat until hot to the touch but not boiling – about 4 minutes – whisking frequently.

  • Turn off heat and taste to adjust flavour. Add more sweetener to taste or more turmeric or ginger for intense spice + flavour.

  • Serve immediately, dividing between two glasses. Best when fresh, though leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or microwave until hot.

I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do!
