  • Always use fresh spices for maximum flavor and health benefits. Spices lose potency over time, so replace your ground turmeric and ginger every six months.
  • For an extra luxurious texture, try blending the finished latte in a high speed blender for 30 seconds. This creates microfoam throughout the entire drink rather than just on top.
  • Keep a premixed spice blend of the dry ingredients in a small jar for quick preparation. This makes it easy to enjoy your golden milk even on busy evenings when measuring multiple spices feels like too much effort.
