Golden Turmeric Masala Milk

1In a small saucepan, pour in the milk and heat it over medium heat until it is warm but not boiling.

2Add the turmeric powder (1 teaspoon), ground ginger (½ teaspoon), ground cardamom (½ teaspoon), black pepper (¼ teaspoon), and cinnamon (if using) to the warm milk.

3Whisk the mixture well to combine all the spices thoroughly into the milk.

4Continue to heat the mixture for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

5If you prefer a sweeter drink, add honey or maple syrup (1 tablespoon) to taste and stir until dissolved.

6For a creamier texture and added health benefits, stir in the coconut oil (1 tablespoon) until fully melted and combined.

7Once heated through and well mixed, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly before serving.

8Pour the Golden Turmeric Masala Milk into mugs and enjoy it warm.
