Golden Turmeric Milk

It’s no secret that I love turmeric. I use it in my Cheesy Veggie Tofu Scramble, Turmeric Persimmon Nice Cream, my go-to Cheese Sauce, Fully Loaded Vegan Mac n’ Cheez, and even a Turmeric Face & Tooth Mask. It’s such a powerful antioxidant that consuming turmeric on a daily basis can aide the recovery of brain function and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, lower blood sugar, curb depression, prevent heart disease, and prevent & treat cancer. No wonder it’s known as “Holy Powder” 🙏

Enter Golden Turmeric Milk. This creamy yellow liquid is a great way to incorporate turmeric into your day, especially if you like warm, cozy drinks ☕️🍵

I actually posted a slightly embarrassing recipe for Turmeric Milk over two years ago. It was one of my first recipes, when I was still sometimes using my phone to take photos for the blog! Check out my fancier, updated version of this drink and give it a try when you want something that is both healing and filling.

Ingredients You Will Need:

  • 1 can of lite coconut milk (the full fat is waaay to rich for me)
  • 1/2 cup of non-dairy milk (I used soy milk)
  • 1 pinch of whole cloves
  • 2 tsp ground turmeric (organic if you can)
  • 1 generous pinch of ground nutmeg
  • 1 generous pinch of ground allspice
  • 1 pinch of coarse black pepper
  • maple syrup or Stevia powder if sweetness is needed
  • ground cinnamon or cinnamon sticks

What You Do:

  1. Heat the lite coconut milk, non-dairy milk, and cloves in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. When the milk begins to simmer, whisk in the ground turmeric and turn down to low heat.
  3. Add the nutmeg, allspice, and black pepper and gently whisk.
  4. Taste the mixture and if it needs to be sweetened, add a splash of maple syrup or a small pinch of Stevia powder.
  5. Once your mixture reaches the desired temperature, pour into mug and top with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon or cinnamon stick and another pinch of black pepper.

This drink is a great coffee and tea substitute if you’re trying to cut back on caffeine, and mixing the turmeric with a fat like coconut milk helps the body to absorb it better so you get all those fantastic antioxidants!

Enjoy!

I made tofu Panna Cotta with a coconut mango puree I made tofu Panna Cotta with a coconut mango puree 🥥🥭 I loved the Panna Cotta part - it set well (first time using agar agar), tasted very fresh, and had the perfect hint of almond. The puree tasted good but I should've strained it - it had those stringy bits of mango which I don't like - so Cece enjoyed all the puree 🤪

I spent Earth Day weekend camping for the first ti I spent Earth Day weekend camping for the first time! 🌎 But not by myself -- with 11 other women from all over Texas for a yoga & hiking retreat that I decided to organize because I thought it would be fun ⛺️ We were all strangers and yet we got along great, and I admire their adventurous spirits! Cece had a lot of fun too. This was a completely new experience for her as well, and I think she did great considering she was totally out of her comfort zone. Already starting to plan my next camping trip! 😃

With my volunteer buddy Judy at the Miracle Ranch With my volunteer buddy Judy at the Miracle Ranch yesterday. Judy and I work together every Saturday, usually dumping out the water tubs, scrubbing and refilling them so the donkeys have clean, fresh water. We also help the staff at feeding time. And we kiss a lot of donkeys lol 😄 I think Judy is honestly the nicest person I've ever met! She just adopted Juliet (seen here) and her mom Bracchi. I can't wait until I can adopt donkeys! 😭😭

Vegan fried chicken with oyster mushrooms (but I made the batter too thick 😭) and scallops with king mushrooms & lemon garlic sauce. The scallops were my favorite! So flavorful and the perfect texture 👌😋

My first time making leek & potato soup and it cam My first time making leek & potato soup and it came out so good! And vegan (gf) parmesan toast just sounded like the right side for it 😋 

I sauteed garlic and leeks, added diced potatoes and brought to a boil with water and veggie bouillon. Seasoned with s&p, garlic powder, and nooch. Blended everything together with oat milk.
