Golden Milk Popsicle's
In this heat this recipe takes super healthy, vegan (depending on ingredient options) and gluten free golden milk and turns it into a frozen treat. Turmeric is known to have anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and even anti-carcinogenic properties. Turmeric is fat-soluble so you want some sort of fat, like that in the milk, so it can be absorbed and black pepper also enhances the bio-availability of the turmeric.
INGREDIENTS
2.5 cups almond milk (use milk of your choice)
1/4 cup liquid sweetener of your choice (maple syrup, Agave
Nectar or honey)
2 teaspoon The Bean & The Leaf Organic turmeric powder
1 teaspoon The Bean & The Leaf cardamom powder
1 teaspoon The Bean & The Leaf Korintje cinnamon powder
1 small pinch The Bean & The Leaf black pepper
1 small knob of ginger, sliced
Note- you can also replace the tumeric, black pepper and sweetener simply by using 4 tablespoon Colorado Hemp Honey's Turmeric & Black Pepper honey.
INSTRUCTIONS
In a medium sauce pan, simmer milk and liquid sweetener. Add in all the spices listed above for additional 2 minutes or so. Turn off the heat and keep the sauce pan aside.
Allow it to completely cool in the refrigerator.
Strain the milk and remove ginger pieces before pouring the contents into the popsicle mold. Pour about 3/4th full and insert the popsicle stick. Let it freeze overnight or until completely frozen.
Notes
Soak popsicle sticks in water for an hour or so in order to prevent it from floating when you insert it in the mold.To easily unmold popsicle, run popsicles under hot water for 20-30 seconds. If you don't have popsicle molds you can use 2-4 oz disposable cups as your molds.
