Here is another recipe for golden milk that we like since it’s so simple (everything is mixed together in a blender and then heated on the stovetop).
Also, if you would like to try golden milk without the hassle of a recipe, we do carry prepared golden milk powder by Jarrow called Golden Tea at the store which is dairy free and can be served mixed with hot water or the milk of your choice.
