"To make the golden milk, mix ½ cup of milk, ½ tsp turmeric, ¼ tsp ginger powder, ¼ tsp cinnamon powder and a pinch of black pepper powder in a pot and bring to the boil. Once cool, add a teaspoon of honey."

How does it taste?

I've tried in the past to mix turmeric powder with milk and boy it is hard to get turmeric to dissolve. Boiling is what I haven't done, prefer microwave. Turmeric never has any taste to me but ginger powder would be pretty peppery (my gut hates black pepper so that's a no).

"how does it taste" - pretty disgusting i suspect smile however, i've read so much about the wonderful properties of turmeric milk that i once bought a ready made concoction and it was quite unbearable. This recipe seemed more palatable to me but i haven't tried it yet. I've read that a pinch of black pepper should be added to enhance its properties. In Poland, it's almost impossible to buy any curcumin supplement without pepper. I've been always a bit cautious about curcumin because it may provoke bleeding but i see that many people on this forum are really enthusiastic about it, so I'm planning to give it a chance

There are some powdered turmeric supplement options (not traditional spice form) that may dissolve and absorb better as well.
