Also known as golden milk, this warm drink takes less than ten minutes on the stovetop and fills the kitchen with a cozy, spiced aroma.
Turmeric and ginger are the stars here, and the pinch of black pepper is a traditional pairing that's often used alongside turmeric. This recipe is tagged for stress and sleep support because warm, spiced milk drinks are a common part of evening wind-down routines. A touch of honey and a swirl of coconut oil round out the texture.
Whisk frequently as it warms so the spices don't settle, then pour into mugs and sip slowly before bed.
