Organic Golden Milk

Our Organic Golden Milk is resplendent with the fragrance of citrusy ginger and the comforting warmth of cinnamon. This salt-free blend has a pepper-forward flavor, with its bite and its deep, pine flavor resonating throughout. The earthy turmeric, which gives this blend its gorgeous color and resonant flavor, pairs with cinnamon’s lilting sweetness to stay light and playful. Ginger’s dulcet heat and savory-tart flavor ride along the top of this blend for a soothing, elegant finish. We blend our Organic Golden Milk in small batches in our facility, to guarantee freshness and flavor in our products.

What Hindi speakers call haldi doodh, English speakers call Golden Milk. At its most basic, golden milk is a cup of hot liquid and a tablespoon of turmeric; that liquid can be milk, or water, or tea. This relaxing drink is touted as standard folk medicine. It’s used as a sleep aid and is given to children to help soothe a sore throat. It’s purported to help with digestion and arthritis, with further claims that it can bring down a fever, and has anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce swelling by applying poultices. Turmeric has been a factor in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. Ayurveda embraces the idea that balance between mind, body, and spirit is the key to wellness, and practitioners use natural products, like turmeric, to achieve or restore this balance.

Tips From Our Kitchen

Our recipe for Golden Milk features our Organic Golden Milk blend, but be sure to add a teaspoon of Organic Pure Vanilla Extract if you want sweeter golden milk. Since it is salt- and sugar-free, the opportunities to use this blend other than in golden milk are endless. Use as a seasoning base for carrot or butternut squash soup. Marinate chicken with this blend and some yogurt, and grill. Use as a seasoning base for pineapple curry rice, sprinkle over potatoes and peas for samosas, or roast with eggplant for a deep and flavorful curry. Try this in something sweet, like spiced shortbread cookies or a carrot cake with a kick. Make the Golden Milk beverage, let it cool, and pour it over some cognac on ice.

Our Organic Golden Milk is blended from organic turmeric, organic cinnamon, organic black pepper, and organic ginger.
