In the age of soda drinking, many healthy beverages have been swept under the rug. One such power drink has been given the name “golden milk”. Once you hear more about this liquid gold in today’s video, you will probably be inspired to make your own beverage at home. There’s no need to stress out if you are lactose intolerant; it’s not truly milk. It’s a blend of coconut milk and oil along with various spices. First let’s head to the kitchen and open up the spice cabinet. Except for the coconut milk, you may already have the ingredients you will need. 1. Tumeric This potent spice is a natural remedy that’s already been dubbed king of relieving joint and muscle pain. Those who incorporate turmeric into their daily diets can also benefit from improved skin conditions. It can enhance gut health, and boost our respiratory and immune systems, thanks to its anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties. 2. Ginger Also loaded with effective anti-inflammatory properties, ginger blends nicely with turmeric to give golden milk its color. 3. Coconut milk This luscious creamy milk is a powerhouse of vitamin B, magnesium and the good kind of fatty acids. Minerals called electrolytes also swim laps within the coconut milk, which are vital in muscle action, maintaining proper blood pH and many other processes. Coconut oil also boosts the digestive and immune system, helps promote weight loss, and gives our complexion a healthy glow. 4. Black pepper As potent as turmeric is, it’s basically idle until black pepper fires it up to release its secret weapons. Once black pepper activates it, turmeric releases its agents to fight free radicals, treat common cold symptoms, aid in digestion and combat anemia. 5. Honey Thank goodness for those bees. Without them we wouldn’t have this rich syrup loaded with healthy benefits. Honey contains antibacterial properties and can even help our bodies relax so we can get to sleep. Now that we have the ingredients, here’s how we’ll measure them and get started: Golden Milk Recipe: 1 teaspoon turmeric; 1 small fresh ginger root, peeled and minced; 1 tablespoon coconut oil; Dash of black pepper; 2 cups of coconut milk; 1 teaspoon honey; 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, if desired. Instructions: In a saucepan, pour in the coconut milk and oil; Add spices; Add honey; Heat for 5 minutes, stirring continuously; Pour in a cup, allow it to cool a little and enjoy.
