What is Golden milk?

Serves 6

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of Pumpkin Spice
  • ⅓ cup of organic pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup filtered water
  • Non-dairy milk, for serving
  • 2+ tablespoons maple syrup or stevia sweetener

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine all the ingredients except the almond milk (or dairy free milk of your choice) and begin warming over medium heat.
  2. Use a whisk to stir regularly until all the spices are dissolved in the water.
  3. Allow to simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes so that some of the water can reduce and thicken the syrup/concentrate.
  4. Remove from the heat and transfer to a glass container (if you use plastic, it will be forever stained yellow) and store in the fridge until ready to use.
  5. When ready to serve, stir the concentrate because it will have separated, and then measure out 1 1/2 tablespoons (1/6th of the total amount) into a glass with 4-6 oz of warm almond milk. Stir and top with a dash of cinnamon and pumpkin spice.
