– In a small saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it’s warm but not boiling.
2. **Add Spices:**
– Stir in the turmeric powder, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper. Whisk well to ensure the spices are fully dissolved and combined.
3. **Sweeten:**
– Add honey or maple syrup to taste, and stir until fully incorporated.
4. **Add Oil (Optional):**
– If using coconut oil or ghee, stir it in at this point for a richer, creamier texture.
5. **Simmer:**
– Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 5 minutes. This helps the flavors meld together and allows the turmeric to fully infuse the milk.
6. **Strain (Optional):**
– If you used fresh ginger or prefer a smoother drink, you can strain the milk through a fine mesh sieve.
7. **Serve:**
– Pour the golden milk into a mug and enjoy it warm.
### Tips:
– For an extra touch, you can garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few saffron threads.
– Adjust the sweetness and spice levels according to your taste preferences.
– For a more intense turmeric flavor, you can increase the amount of turmeric powder slightly.
Enjoy your golden milk as a soothing bedtime drink or a cozy, health-boosting treat anytime!
