Step-by-Step: How to Make Organic Golden Milk
Step 1: Heat the Milk
Pour your preferred organic milk into a small saucepan.
Turn the heat to medium and let it warm gently; don’t let it boil yet.
Step 2: Add the Spices
Add turmeric, ginger, black pepper, and cinnamon.
These ingredients are what transform plain milk into a powerhouse.
Tip: Black pepper increases the absorption of turmeric’s curcumin by nearly 2000%.
Step 3: Simmer Gently
Once the milk starts to bubble lightly, reduce the heat to low.
Let it simmer for 5 to 7 minutes.
Keep stirring so the spices don’t stick to the bottom.
The goal is to let the flavours infuse, not burn.
Step 4: Sweeten and Whisk
Turn off the heat.
Let it cool for about a minute, then add organic honey or jaggery powder.
Whisk it vigorously to create a natural foam like a café latte, but cleaner.
Step 5: Strain and Serve
Pour it through a fine sieve to remove any ginger or spice residue.
Serve hot.
The golden colour, earthy aroma, and silky texture will make you forget every overpriced café latte you’ve ever had.

Pro Tips for the Perfect Golden Milk
-
Always use fresh turmeric or high-grade organic powder for real benefits.
-
Never boil honey; add it once the milk is slightly cool.
-
Use a wooden spoon or whisk to mix; it helps the froth develop.
-
If you like a thicker texture, use full-fat milk or add a bit of organic ghee.
