Servings: 1 serving
Calories: 185kcal
Equipment
- Whisk (non-electric)
- Small strainer
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups plant milk of choice
- ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
- ¼ teaspoon cardamom powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger or small knob of root ginger
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Pour the milk into your pan and sprinkle in the turmeric, ginger and cardamom.
- Bring the milk to a light simmer, and whisk to infuse the spices into the milk. Heat for 4-5 minutes. Stir through the maple syrup.
- Place a small strainer over your cup and pour the hot spiced milk through.
Notes
- Whisk well so the spices infuse into the milk.
- I suggest not letting it boil as this can affect the flavor. Warm to a very light simmer instead.
- If cinnamon works for you (for my low histamine readers, it is very debated in terms of histamine level, so only use if you tolerate well), then you can add a small pinch.
- Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
- ginger, which scores 1. The SIGHI list states that small amounts are well tolerated.
- cardamom scores 0, but has a note (in French) that some varieties may not be well tolerated.
- non-dairy milk has variable scores.
