Serves 1 servings

Ingredients

  • 250 ml whole milk or coconut milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure turmeric powder or 1 serving Organic 5-in-1 Turmeric Tea Blend
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger or a 1 cm slice fresh ginger
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon honey or coconut sugar, to taste
  • Optional 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper in a small saucepan.

  2. Add a tablespoon of milk and stir into a smooth paste to prevent clumping.

  3. Add the remaining milk and warm over medium-low heat until gently steaming, without boiling.

  4. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, so the spices infuse into the milk.

  5. Remove from heat, then stir in honey and vanilla if using.

  6. Pour into a mug through a fine strainer if fresh ginger was used, then serve warm.

Chef's Tip

Keep the heat low and avoid boiling after the milk is added. Gentle heat keeps the turmeric smooth and prevents the milk from scorching.
