to drink - golden milk

Turmeric has amazing health benefits and flavor. It is know  as a “healing spice” and is used to help anything from sore throats, colds, flus, stomach aches to wound healing, abrasions/skin issues due to it’s antibacterial and antimicrobial properties.

So brewing a cup of hot turmeric or golden milk to fight a flue that has been torturing me all week was only more than perfect. Ans there is something about drinking hot milk in bed, such a comforting feeling.
Beat those germs!
 

Golden milk
recipe type: to drink, to snack, to breakfast

what you need:
2 cups (homemade) almond milk - so easy! see post here
1 tablespoon raw or local honey
1 tablespoon coconut oil - this is optional
1 teaspoon ground turmeric - this is going to turn your milk into gold

Simply pour all ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to a light boil, whisk to combine ingredients. Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for up to 20 minutes. If you have large pieces of ginger, cinnamon and peppercorn, strain the milk.
