Ingredients

• 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or other compliant non-dairy milk)
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (Whole30-compliant)
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil
• 1 pinch black pepper
• 0 optional compliant sweetener (optional, e.g., a date or monk fruit powder)

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the unsweetened almond milk, ground turmeric, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and black pepper.

Step 2

Stir the mixture with a whisk to ensure the spices are fully blended into the milk.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and warm the mixture gently, stirring occasionally, for about 4-5 minutes. Do not let it boil.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract and coconut oil. If using a date or other Whole30-compliant sweetener, add it to the saucepan now.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to a blender if you used a date or want a frothy texture. Blend on high for 20-30 seconds until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Pour the turmeric milk into two mugs and serve warm. Adjust sweetness to taste if necessary.
