How to make Golden milk easy (golden milk):
- We gather all the ingredients of the golden milk recipe to start making it.
- Place the milk in a saucepan over medium heat together with the piece of cinnamon stick, the vanilla pod (if you open it will give more aroma and flavor) and the open cardamom grains (so that they better release their properties), and bring it to a boil but lower the heat just before it comes to a boil.
- You can make vegetable milk yourself at home if you prefer with this almond milk recipe or this other recipe for homemade coconut milk with grated coconut.
- Trick: The piece of vanilla bean is optional and if you don’t want it, you don’t have to put it in the easy golden milk recipe, but I like it because it gives it an extra very good vanilla flavor.
- Add the rest of the golden milk or golden latte ingredients and stir well.
- The type of sweetener or sweetener you use to sweeten this “super drink” is entirely up to taste. I have used coconut sugar, which is much healthier than refined sugar and has a low glycemic load (low glycemic index), so this vegan drink is also suitable for diabetics.
- Tip: Don’t go overboard with ground cayenne pepper and cayenne, otherwise the milk of gold will taste too spicy.
- Then we leave the golden milk for about 5 minutes over low heat so that all the properties of its ingredients are transferred to the liquid.
- We strain the mixture with the help of a strainer or Chinese in our favorite cup.
- Finally, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top to decorate it, and enjoy! This easy recipe for golden milk or Ayurveda golden milk is perfect to drink in the afternoon or before bed, especially when the temperatures are lower and it starts to get cold, as it is very comforting and has a very special flavor and aroma. That transport you to some remote part of India if you close your eyes.
