What exactly is golden milk?

Glad you asked! Made with turmeric (amongst other things), the dairy-free milk is a vibrant, yellowy-gold color that makes for a wonderful #HelloFreshPics photo-op. Just saying…

But aside from being absolutely beautiful, golden milk is also nutrient-packed, with benefits that include lowering blood sugar, and helping the body with inflammation.  And bonus points, everything the milk touches instantly tastes delectable. 

How to make golden milk

Ingredients:

  • 6 Cups Dairy-Free Milk (i.e. almond, coconut, oat)
  • 2 Teaspoons Turmeric*
  • ½-1 Teaspoon Ground Ginger, to taste
  • ½-1 Teaspoon Cinnamon, to taste
  • 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup (or Agave Nectar)  

Instructions:

  1. Pour 6 cups dairy-free milk into a large carafe or bowl. Option to mix two different types of milk as the base (i.e. 3 cups coconut milk with 3 cups almond milk)
  2. Stir in turmeric, ground ginger, cinnamon, and maple syrup.
  3. Enjoy, hot or cold!

*Turmeric has a very strong flavor, so if you’re new to it, we suggest using 1/2 teaspoon. On the other hand, if you’re a fan, consider adding a pinch of black pepper to your blend—it helps the body absorb the nutrients.
