I might be a bit late in the Turmeric Golden Milk posting game, but I have been drinking this one for a few years now.
Well, I must humbly confess, I do not drink it very often. Nevertheless, when I feel sluggish or need some extra boost, this beverage truly works its magic.
This Indian native warm and cozy beverage is full of marvelous health properties or nutritional benefits to heal your body and soul.
I would recommend one mug before going to bed for the peaceful, anxiety-free, goodnight sleep.
The taste is strong, but not as spicy as you would perhaps expect. It is remarkably relaxing!
With the freezing winter nearing, and in many states and countries already here, this golden tea is a necessity.
To me personally, there is nothing more calming than a cup of hot tea, blanket wrapped around me while I read a good book. Though it may seem strange, that would be my ideal evening.
I collect delicious teas so making my blend is a valuable blessing to me. Naturally, you could mix it to your liking.
Some might find it too strong therefore add slightly less of this and a bit more of that until you achieve what your taste buds like the most.
Why should you drink Golden Milk?
Well, first of all, Golden milk’s ingredients, which are ginger, cinnamon, and turmeric, contain anti-inflammatory properties. So it is absolutely amazing for you.
Also, you must add black pepper. Turmeric combined with black pepper, each has health benefits, due to the compounds curcumin and piperine, increases the absorption of curcumin by up to 2000%.
