How to Make Golden Milk

Posted by Laura Rubin on

What is Golden Milk?

It is an Ayurvedic drink that combines Turmeric with other warming herbs like Ginger, Cinnamon and Black Pepper. It is incredibly nutritive and balancing, great for digestion and immunity. Here’s some useful info on these herbs.

💛Turmeric (Curcuma longa)

is a powerful root. It’s anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and a digestive friend.* A fun fact is that if you add black pepper, it can increase the bio-availability of the curcumin (active compound in Turmeric) up to 2000%.

🧡Ginger (Zingiber officinale)

moves energy in the body. It supports digestive flow, is antispasmodic, anti-nausea herb, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial. It can be nice in salves and after a big meal. It may be too hot for people who have overactive motility in their guts.*

🤎Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum)

while it tastes sweet and is soothing, this herb can stabilize sugar levels and is a blood circulatory. May help with female flow at that time of the moon.*

    We like to add this paste into other dishes too, as it’s great to apply to soups, eggs or with roasted veggies. This morning we added it into an egg breakfast with roasted beets, kale and mushrooms.
