Ingredients
- 1 cup milk - whole milk
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder (ground turmeric)
- 1 pinch black pepper powder or crushed black pepper
Instructions
- Heat milk in a saucepan on a low to medium flame.
- Simmer the milk for 2 to 3 minutes or until it boils. Once the milk starts boiling, turn off the heat.
- Pour the hot milk in a glass or mug.
- Add turmeric powder and black pepper powder.
- Stir and mix very well.
- Serve Turmeric Milk hot or warm.
Notes
- If you like the Turmeric Milk to be sweet, then you can add 1 teaspoon sugar or your preferred sweeteners to the milk, but its optional. Kids would like to have it with little bit of sugar.
- Optionally, you can also add crushed ginger, ginger juice, ground cinnamon powder, ground green cardamom powder or ground clove powder.
- For making turmeric milk with fresh turmeric roots, rinse a small piece of the root first. Peel it and grate it to get about ½ to 1 teaspoon of grated fresh turmeric root. Add this and black pepper to the milk and heat until the milk simmers or boils. Turn off heat. Using a tea strainer, strain the milk in a cup or mug.
- You could opt out to leave the straining and enjoy the finely grated turmeric in the milk with a spoon. Also add the fresh turmeric root amount as needed depending on your health conditions and taste preferences.
- You can also add honey but add it to warm milk and not to hot milk.
- The recipe can easily be doubled or tripled.
