Have you heard about Golden Milk? Golden Milk, which is also called turmeric milk, golden mylk (the “y” is health-speak for non-cow milk), turmeric latte, golden latte or even dirty golden, is pure liquid gold! This ancient Ayurvedic drink is one of the best ways to incorporate turmeric into your daily diet. Golden Milk is actually a really delicious, restorative and warming drink. It’s perfect at night to warm you up and wind you down or in the morning as a caffeine free kickstarter. Either way you feel like you are drinking a golden cup of goodness!

Method
- Combine all ingredients for the Golden Milk except the coconut oil and honey in a sauce pan. Carefully heat while stirring.
- Remember the measurement for ground cardamom depends on how fresh it is.
- When the Golden Milk is steamy, but not boiling, pour into a cup and stir in a teaspoon of coconut oil and half a teaspoon of honey (or more if you like it sweeter!).
