Moon Milk
A healthy, herbal nighttime tonic to shepherd you into dreamland.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Milk of choice
- 1/2 tsp Ground turmeric
- 1/2 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground Ashwagandha
- 2 pinches ground cardamom
- 1 pinch ground ginger
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- 1 pinch ground freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp coconut oil or ghee
- 1 tsp honey (preferably raw)
Instructions
- Simmer milk in a small saucepan over a medium-low heat
- Whisk in turmeric, cinnamon, ashwagandha, ginger, and cardamom, and nutmeg; seasoning with black pepper
- Whisk vigorously so as to avoid any lumps and clumps
- Add the coconut oil, reducing the heat to low, and then continuing to cook until warm; about 5-10 minutes, because the longer you go, the stronger the medicine is
- Remove from the heat and allow it to cool
- Stir in the honey. Don’t cook the honey because honey that is cooked loses all its healing goodness.
- Pour into a mug, drinking it warm, and then go to bed and allow yourself to be shepherded into dreamland
