Notes
- This recipe is best put together in grams – so this is your nudge to invest in an inexpensive food scale. It’s one of my biggest kitchen gadget recommendations (as someone who doesn’t like too many gadgets) as it will change the way you bake, cook and make coffee. When you measure with a scale, it also saves on dishes.
- Remember: this is meant for you to customize to your own palate and preferences. If you already know you don’t like a particular flavor, leave it out.
Answering a FAQ: although this golden milk mix is meant to be used in many different recipes, if you’d like to use this in a beverage I encourage you to adjust to taste as far as how much to use for a cup of milk, but here are some jumping off points:
- you’ll likely want to use around 1tsp. as a starting point.
- It’s great with warm milk and a bit of sweetener like honey, agave, or maple.
- Some people like to simply mix this in a cup or sauce pan and don’t mind if it’s a bit less combined—when making a warm golden milk I personally like to warm my milk and then blend it in a blender with the golden milk mix, a bit of honey, and a small amount of cacao butter or coconut oil (fat helps with the absorption of turmeric). Hope that helps, and let me know if you have more questions.
