Description
I frantically started searching for recipes when my husband brought home 1 kilo of fresh turmeric root. I found many drink recipes calling for milk, turmeric, and ginger root. I sampled different amounts of each ingredient and feel this is a perfect balance between creamy almond milk, spicy ginger, and the earthy taste of turmeric. This is a less spiced version of Haldi Ka Doodh.
Ingredients
- 1 (1 1/2 inch) piece fresh turmeric root, peeled and grated
- 1 (1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger root, peeled and grated
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 pinch ground turmeric (Optional)
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon (Optional)
Instructions
- Combine turmeric root
- ginger root
- and honey together in a bowl
- crushing the turmeric and ginger as much as possible.
- Heat almond milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Once small bubbles begin to form around the edges
- reduce heat to low. Transfer about 2 tablespoon milk to turmeric mixture to allow mixture to soften and honey to melt into a paste-like mixture.
- 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.
- Pour turmeric tea into a mug and top with ground turmeric and cinnamon.
