In a small pan, mix turmeric, ground peppercorn, and cinnamon, with almond milk. Heat the mixture over medium-low heat stirring it a couple of times with a whisk or fork.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Let the golden milk simmer for 2-3 minutes over medium-low heat. Add avocado oil and maple syrup and mix. Waterfall the milk into your favorite cup. Enjoy hot with a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper!
*can also use hemp milk. If using hemp milk, you don't need to add any oil/fat as the milk is naturally high in fat.
**I have added avocado oil. You can replace it with coconut oil; but it is high in saturated fat. Another alternative is unsweetened, shredded dry coconut; add 2 tsp instead of coconut oil. Don't forget to strain the milk to get the smooth texture.
***increase maple syrup to 2tsp if you like your drink to be a tad sweeter.
Vegetarian Version:
- Replace almond milk with dairy
- replace avocado oil with ghee
