Ingredients

  • 1 cup Milk (whole milk)
  • ¼ teaspoon Turmeric powder (ground turmeric)
  • A pinch of Black Pepper powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Ghee

Instructions
 

  • In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup milk over medium-low heat until it is warm. Be careful not to let it boil.
    2. Add 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric to the warm milk. If desired, add a pinch of black pepper to the mixture. Black pepper contains piperine, which can enhance the absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric. These spices not only provide flavor but also offer potential health benefits.
    3. Now append 1/4 teaspoon ghee in milk. It will boost the energy level and enhance the flavor of milk.
    4. Whisk the mixture thoroughly to ensure that the spices are evenly distributed and combined with the milk. Continue to heat the mixture for a few more minutes until it is well-infused.
    5. To give frothy look to milk then exchange itwith2glasses from some height approx 6 inches.
    6. If you prefer a touch of sweetness, you can add honey or a sweetener of your choice. Stir well until the sweetener is fully dissolved.
    7. Once everything is well combined, remove the saucepan from the heat.
    8. Pour the turmeric milk into a cup or mug and enjoy it while it's warm. You can sprinkle a pinch of saffron on top for added flavor and decoration, if desired.
