Nighttime Ritual — Golden Turmeric Milk

Golden Turmeric Milk is an ancient Indian Ayurveda recipe dating back almost 3000 years. It promotes a good nights sleep and contains anti-inflammatory properties.

INGREDIENTS YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE GOLDEN TURMERIC MILK

• Ground Turmeric Powder:
  In this case, the ground turmeric powder is actually better than the fresh root as it’s more concentrated.
• Ground Black Pepper:
  This is key to the absorption of the nutrients in turmeric.
• Milk of your Choice:
  A little fat is needed to help absorb all of the nutrients in golden milk. I Prefer whole raw milk or coconut milk. 
• Fat:
• Almond oil, coconut oil or seed oils all work well if you’re using nut milk; you don’t need to add extra fat if using the full-fat coconut milk.
• Spices:
  Add any of the following to your golden milk for extra flavor and health benefits:
  • Ground cardamom
  • Star anise
  • Clove
  • Fennel seed
  • Fresh or ground ginger
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Raw honey
  • Pure vanilla extract

HOW TO MAKE GOLDEN TURMERIC MILK
