1 cup of milk (dairy or plant-based)
1 teaspoon of turmeric powder
1 tablespoon of honey
Optional: A pinch of black pepper (to enhance turmeric absorption)
Optional: A dash of cinnamon or ginger for extra flavor
How to Make the Honey, Milk, and Turmeric Warming Drink
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Heat the Milk: Pour 1 cup of milk into a small saucepan and warm it over medium heat. Do not let it boil; just heat until it’s hot enough to drink comfortably.
Add Turmeric: Stir in 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder. If you’re using fresh turmeric, grate a small piece directly into the milk.
Enhance Absorption: Optionally, add a pinch of black pepper. Black pepper contains piperine, which enhances the absorption of curcumin in turmeric.
Sweeten with Honey: Once the milk and turmeric are well combined and heated, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in 1 tablespoon of honey until it’s fully dissolved. Adding honey after removing the milk from heat preserves its beneficial properties.
Add Extra Flavor (Optional): For an extra layer of warmth and flavor, add a dash of cinnamon or ginger. Stir well.
Serve: Pour the warm drink into a mug and enjoy immediately. This comforting beverage is perfect for any time of the day, especially in the evening before bed.
