Golden Moon Milk
Golden Moon Milk is a warm beverage blending whole milk with coconut oil, turmeric, cinnamon, ashwagandha, ginger, nutmeg, and black pepper. The spices are gently heated together with the milk to infuse flavor, and an optional drizzle of honey adds sweetness. This drink offers a spicy, aromatic profile and smooth texture, suitable for sipping before rest or relaxation.
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or ghee, organic
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric ground
- ½ teaspoon ashwagandha ground
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- Pinch nutmeg ground
- black pepper freshly ground
- 300 ml whole milk fresh
- 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- Heat a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add in coconut oil, followed by cinnamon, turmeric, ashwagandha, ginger, nutmeg and a generous pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Whisk to combine all the ingredients, and allow to warm up for one minute.
