Antidote Golden Milk

Antidote Golden Milk

Our take on the popular ayurvedic turmeric drink is particularly warming and soothing for the digestive tract…it definitely has pumpkin pie vibes if you add a little sweetener. Pro tip, for satisfying froth, we like to blitz in the blender with  2/3water and 1/3 plant milk BEFORE brewing then follow it up with a covered simmer in the sauce pan. This order prevents heat explosions in the blender!

Turmeric is a very common ingredient in Indian cuisine and medicine. But here in the US, we’ve just begun to scratch the surface of the medicinal benefits of this fantastically colorful rhizome. So colorful that it will stain cutting fingers and anything they touch orange. As such, it is used widely as a botanical dye.

While most people in the US think of curcumin, the main active constituent of Turmeric rhizome, in reference to inflammation in arthritic cases, it has an affinity to the blood which is why it’s beneficial as an anti-inflammaorty to so many organ systems, digestive, nervous, musculo-skeletal. Recent studies have found curcumin helpful in aiding the reproduction and plasticity of brain cells.

We’ve got the perfect blend of turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon, and ginger in this easy to make beverage.

1 heaping tsp per 8 oz mix of 2/3 water and 1/3 plant based milk.
