Part 3/8:
The first recipe is a classic: Golden Milk, renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties and vibrant color. To prepare, blend together unsweetened plant-based milk with full-fat coconut milk, ground turmeric, cinnamon, a dash of black pepper, and two Medjool dates for natural sweetness. Vanilla extract adds a touch of warmth. Straining the mixture ensures extra smoothness, though skipping this step maintains fiber and texture.
Heat the blend gently on the stove, stirring constantly to prevent burning. For added sweetness, a tablespoon of maple syrup can be stirred in. Garnish with a dash of cinnamon for presentation, and optional espresso can transform this into a turmeric latte—reliable comfort in a cup.
