Ingredients
- 500 ml milk
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp honey Adjust to taste
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract Optional
Instructions
- In a saucepan, pour the whole milk and heat it over medium-low heat. Be sure not to boil it; you want it hot but not scalding.
- Add 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground black pepper to the milk. Stir well to combine.
- Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. This helps to infuse the flavours of the spices into the milk.
- After simmering, remove the saucepan from the heat. If you'd like, you can add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavour.
- Sweeten your turmeric milk with 2 tablespoons of honey, or adjust the amount to your desired sweetness. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved.
- Pour the turmeric milk into your favourite mug and enjoy the soothing and healthy beverage.
