Nourish Me Golden Milk

GOLDEN MILK - To heal, soothe & nourish!
I'm very close to my mum - we talk on the phone almost every day and I am lost when I don't speak to her. She is 72 now and any time something goes physically wrong with her I am reminded of her age and her fragility and it fills me with anxiety. I don't know how I will cope when it comes time to lose one of my parents. Yet I know the time will come and somehow I will have to go on.
My mum is suffering this week. She has had a bad tear in a supraspinatis and is in incredible pain and unable to move one side of her body.
I made this drink today with her in mind. I know it will help the inflammation in her body and I truly believe in the incredible benefits of turmeric. I have seen turmeric do amazing things for people in pain and with inflammatory conditions.
I also know that when I'm feeling out of balance I need a daily tonic. This one ticks all the boxes as it contains ingredients that I know will keep my immune system strong during times of stress. My mum needs strength now and so do I.
DISCLAIMER: Okay now I need to be upfront and honest. If you are not used to the taste of turmeric then this drink might be a bit FULL ON for you! It is not a drink for the faint hearted. That is not what a tonic is. This is a therapeutic drink that is spicy and strong. It's filled with a range of incredible spices that have strong therapeutic activity. It is not going to taste like a sugary processed chai latte.
It tastes a little bit like a bloody mary without the tomato, a little bit like a chai without the milk or honey, it's spicy and warming, super healing and nourishing for the body. I honestly don't know how to explain it other than when I drink it I feel like my whole body is being nourished.
I'm drinking mine warm right now like a tea but it would be beautiful on a hot day with some ice blocks. If you want to make a large batch it should last you 2 - 3 days if refrigerated.
I hope this drink nourishes, calms and soothes you and most of all you enjoy making it. Alisa 🙂
