This comforting turmeric drink, also known as golden milk or turmeric latte, contains the perfect combination to make the most of its medicinal properties. With this recipe you can easily prepare it at home.
Golden milk is a popular turmeric drink, an authentic turmeric latte also known by its English name golden milk.
What makes golden milk special is that it contains the necessary ingredients so that we can properly assimilate curcumin, the antioxidant compound that gives turmeric its main properties.
To do this, black pepper is added and, in turn, it is combined with a vegetable milk, which provides the fatty component. A turmeric paste (also known as “golden paste”) is prepared beforehand, which already contains everything necessary to assimilate turmeric well. Then with this turmeric paste, vegetable milk and a little coconut oil, golden milk is prepared, which is heated to homogenize the turmeric paste.
To benefit from its properties, you can drink two or three glasses of golden milk a day.
