Golden Milk
A gently spiced, golden plant-milk drink with turmeric, cinnamon and a touch of maple.
Serves: 1 mug | Time: 5–7 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut or almond milk
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- Tiny pinch freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp maple syrup, or to taste
- ½ tsp coconut oil, optional
- Optional: a slice of fresh ginger or a drop of vanilla
Preparation
- Pour plant milk into a small saucepan. Add turmeric, cinnamon, black pepper and ginger, if using.
- Warm gently over medium-low heat for 4–5 minutes, whisking frequently. Avoid a vigorous boil.
- Remove from heat, stir in maple syrup and optional coconut oil, then whisk or froth until silky.
- Pour into a warm mug and dust lightly with cinnamon.
Chef Marie’s Note
A tiny pinch of black pepper is enough; too much can overwhelm the delicate spice. For a café-style texture, froth the warm milk just before serving.
