Grace’s Pick of the Week is her recipe for Golden Milk: “With the end of the holidays and the official start of winter, I like to make Golden Milk. It’s a soothing night-time drink that is great for lubricating the joints. Turmeric, one of the ingredients, is known for its antibiotic and healing properties. Hope this helps with your practice!”

Ingredients:

• 1/8 tsp Turmeric
• 1/4 cup Water
• 8 oz Milk (or lactose-free milk in my case )
• 2 Tbsp Almond Oil
• Honey or Maple Syrup to taste (I prefer honey as it helps with seasonal allergies)

Instructions:

• Place water and turmeric in a small sauce pan and bring to a boil, stirring to a paste for 8 minutes.
• Place milk and almond oil in a separate sauce pan and heat until the milk just comes to a boil, then remove from heat.
• Add the turmeric paste to the milk and stir until the milk becomes completely yellow.
• Add honey or maple syrup to taste.
• Drink Warm.
