There are two ways to make Golden Milk: either by using fresh turmeric and blending it right into your milk or by making a turmeric paste of turmeric powder before adding a spoonful of the paste to your milk.
Peel the turmeric and ginger and place in a blender together with about 1/3 of the milk. Blend until broken down completely.
Pour the blended milk into a saucepan and add the rest of the milk. Turn the heat to a medium and warm the ingredients together just until small bubbles start to appear on the edges (right before it starts cooking). Turn the stove off and let sit for about 3 minutes in the pot with a lid.
Pour golden milk through a fine sieve into a cup. Add oil, sweetener, and cinnamon if you like and stir well. Enjoy warm.
Make turmeric paste: add turmeric powder to a pot with 1/2 cup water and cook for few minutes until you end up with a paste.
For 1 cup of golden milk, add 1 tsp of turmeric paste to a pot, together with milk and grated ginger. Turn the heat to a medium and warm the ingredients together just until small bubbles start to appear on the edges (right before it starts cooking). Turn the stove off and let sit for about 3 minutes in the pot with a lid.
Pour golden milk through a fine sieve into a cup. Add oil, sweetener, and cinnamon if you like and stir well. Enjoy warm.
Turmeric stains everything. Keep that in mind, when peeling, blending and even drinking turmeric!
