Cook time7 min

Warm turmeric, ginger, and cinnamon come together in this cozy golden milk, with a pinch of black pepper added to make that turmeric really pop. Plant-based milk gets gently heated on the stovetop until steaming, then whisked with maple syrup and vanilla extract for a naturally sweet, fragrant finish. A touch of coconut oil adds a silky richness that makes this feel like a treat, not a chore. It comes together in one small saucepan in under ten minutes, then pours straight into your favorite mug for sipping. This one's a genuinely solid pick for a Paleo kitchen, whether you want a soothing nightcap or a gentle way to start the morning. Simple, warming, and endlessly comforting.
