10/7/2019 0 Comments RECIPE: GOLDEN MILKOne of my favourite ways to warm up after a winter run (or anytime at all) is to curl up on the couch with a big mug of Golden Milk. Golden Milk is a centuries-old beverage from India, traditionally used by mothers to make their sick kids feel better and usher them off to sleep. The turmeric in the milk gives it its rich golden colour, and more importantly, gives this drink anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce swelling, aches, and pains—perfect for runners!
I’ve tried several recipes, but ended up tinkering with them until I happened upon the perfect combination of spice/sweet and lowest amount of prep work, because if there’s one thing I don’t want to do after a run, it’s spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Golden Milk (one serving) 1 ½ cups unsweetened almond or soy milk ½ tsp turmeric ¼ tsp ground ginger ¼ tsp cinnamon 1 tbsp maple syrup small dash black pepper Add all ingredients into a large mug and stir. Microwave for 1 minute, stir again, microwave for another minute or until it reaches desired temperature. Stir again & enjoy!
