Got a cold? Turmeric milk will sort you out says The Happy Pear duo

This is like a nutritious super-charged hot chocolate, great for warming you up on your commute to work or for sipping on a cozy evening on the couch. Turmeric milk is not only high in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds, healthy fats (especially when using coconut milk), but also manganese and iron (found in turmeric). In traditional recipes, peppercorns are added which actually enhances the absorption of curcumin (the main component found in turmeric) in our bodies. The ingredients in this recipe actually work in a synergistic way. You will feel them working. Try it: What you’ll need 500ml of rice milk/ coconut milk 1 tablespoon local honey, optional 1 teaspoon ground turmeric or fresh turmeric finely grated 2 cinnamon stick 1/2 tsp dried ginger 4 cardamom pods 2 star anise What to do Simply pour all ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to a light boil, whisk to combine ingredients. Once boiled it’s ready to go Serve warm with raw cocao, cinnamon & star anise on top https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkDYa-61wsE The Happy Pear are currently running Health & Wellbeing courses: ' Happy Heart Course', check out their Facebook page for more.
