Sunshine in a Mug: Golden Milk Recipe

Alberto Garcia December 6, 2019

Move over, hot chocolate! Golden Milk is our go-to winter beverage. Creamy, delicious and nourishing, it warms you up from the inside out. Turmeric's anti-inflammatory healing properties are amplified by black pepper, and blood-sugar-friendly cinnamon helps prevent insulin spikes that can lead to fine lines and blemishes. A health and beauty elixir that tastes like a warm summer day is just a few steps away, so grab your pajamas and get cozy 😊
