Turmeric Golden Milk Tea FAQs

My recipe has gained popularity over time and I’ve received many questions about it. I created this list of commonly asked questions to address the most frequently asked ones:

I am Pregnant/Nursing or I have a certain health condition. Can I drink this tea?

I recommend speaking with your doctor or your Naturopath before consuming any natural remedy. Some sources say consuming culinary amounts is fine and other sources contraindicate that with certain conditions and with certain medications, so be sure to consult with your doctor first.

Can I use other milks (almond, rice, cows milk) or even water instead of coconut milk?

Yes you can! You can make it with any of these. It won’t be as creamy, but you can even make this recipe with plain water or bone broth instead of any milk at all. If you don’t use milk or broth, consider adding a tiny amount of some kind of fat (like butter or coconut oil) as it increases absorption and will be best for supporting the anti-inflammatory properties of this tea.

When should I drink this?

You may drink this tea anytime of the day or night.

How many cups should I drink per day?

I would listen to your body, but 1-4 servings per day is average depending on your health goals.

Can I use fresh turmeric root?

Yes, you can grate a 1 in. piece of fresh turmeric root into the recipe. You may then want to strain it with a fine mesh strainer to remove any pieces or remaining pulp.

Do I drink this hot or cold?

You may drink it either hot or cold – it really is just personal preference.

Can I make a large batch and store in the fridge?

Absolutely. I’ve made up to half a gallon and kept in the fridge, drink within a week. I also enjoy it cold too, but it can also be reheated in a small saucepan.

Can kids drink this tea?

Small amounts are fine. Keep in mind that turmeric is a spice. They love the taste and they will love to help you make it, but check with your pediatrician if you have any questions or concerns before drinking this.
