Method


  1. Warm the milk gently in a small pan (avoid boiling the milk).

  2. Whisk in the turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, and black pepper.

  3. Simmer gently for 2–3 minutes until fragrant.

  4. Stir in honey/maple syrup if using, pour through a tea strainer or muslin cloth into mugs, and enjoy.



Notes


  • Coconut milk creates a creamier, naturally sweet ‘latte’.

  • Sprinkle the top with a little extra cinnamon or nutmeg for display purposes.

  • It took me a while to get to like this drink. Be careful not to add too much turmeric, don’t over-sweeten, and pour through fine sieve to improve texture. 

  • Key Benefits: Anti-inflammatory, warming, supports digestion and immune health.
