Healing Anti-inflammatory Turmeric Tea (Golden Milk) - My grandmother’s recipe.

Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric is one of the most potent anti-inflammatories in nature. If you are suffering from an inflammatory condition, this soothing, healing and nourishing warm anti-inflammatory turmeric beverage is an absolute must try!

Ingredients (use all organic where possible)

• 2 cups milk of your choice (I use raw organic goats’ milk or coconut milk but you can use any milk of your choice!)
• 1 teaspoon grated turmeric
• 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
• A generous pinch of ground black pepper
• 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil
• A few crushed cardamom pods
• A small piece of cinnamon stick
• Raw honey (optional)

Method

• 1. Heat milk in a saucepan for about 5mins. Once the milk is warm, add the turmeric, ginger, pepper, cardamom and cinnamon.
• 2. Cover and let the mixture simmer for another 5 minutes so the milk soaks up all the flavours and nutritional benefits of the spices.
• 3. Remove from heat and strain. Discard solids.
• 4. Add coconut oil and raw honey to taste.
• 5. Enjoy while its hot!

Golden milk is so easy to make and loaded with anti-inflammatory goodness. Please give it a try!

Note - Turmeric can stain your hands and clothes yellow.
