This golden milk recipe makes a cozy, soothing drink. I sampled different amounts of warm almond milk, turmeric, and ginger to achieve the perfect balance between creamy and spicy. Use your favorite milk, and sweeten with honey or maple syrup if you like.
Ingredients
- 1 piece fresh turmeric root , 1 ½ inch
- 1 piece fresh ginger root , 1/2 inch
- 1 tablespoon honey or to taste
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pinch ground turmeric
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
Instructions
-
1
Gather all ingredients.
-
2
Combine turmeric root, ginger root, and honey together in a bowl, crushing the turmeric and ginger as much as possible.
-
3
Heat almond milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Once small bubbles begin to form around the edges, reduce heat to low.
-
4
Transfer about 2 tablespoon milk to turmeric mixture to allow mixture to soften and honey to melt into a paste-like mixture.
-
5
Mix the turmeric paste into milk in the saucepan; raise temperature to medium-low and cook, stirring continuously, until fully combined. Blend with an immersion blender for a smooth texture.
-
6

Rice Paper Fake Bacon
Some fake bacons are hit-and-miss, but because bacon is the one thing most people miss when switching to a vegetarian or vegan way of life, it's expected a fitting alternative is created. This recipe not only offers a completely meat-free bacon, but one that is low in fat and calories. To mimic the intoxicating aroma that we have come to love in the real thing, we used a combination of liquid smoke and paprika to achieve similar results cleverly using rice paper.
