Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 5 drops Liquid stevia (optional, if sweetness is desired)
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil or ghee (optional, for richness)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, pour 2 cups of unsweetened almond milk or your preferred non-dairy milk.
Add the ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground black pepper to the saucepan.
Whisk the ingredients together thoroughly to combine and avoid clumping.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir occasionally to prevent the spices from settling at the bottom.
Heat the mixture until it is warm but not boiling, about 4-5 minutes.
If desired, add the vanilla extract, coconut oil or ghee for added richness, and a few drops of liquid stevia for natural sweetness. Stir well to combine.
Once heated to your preference, remove the saucepan from heat and carefully pour the turmeric milk into mugs or cups using a fine mesh strainer to remove any spice residue if preferred.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sugar-free turmeric milk as a comforting beverage any time of day.
