Brother’s Apothecary Golden Milk

What does Golden Milk taste like?

The Brothers Golden Milk is smooth and delicious, with a warm and comforting flavor. You will recognize many spices from similar flavored beverages, such as spiced Chai. Similarly, Golden Milk has a spicy, somewhat sweet taste, but it is noticeably fuller and more rounded due to the addition of organic coconut powder and coconut sugar.

Note: We highly suggest brewing with a milk alternative, like hemp or oat milk (any milk will do, including animal or grass-fed milk). You can prepare with water for a lighter preparation, though we suggest including some milk or milk alternatives if possible.

Tasting Notes: Ginger spice, bold turmeric, autumnal spices, smooth coconut

What are the benefits of Golden Milk?

Golden Milk, also known as Turmeric Milk, is a beverage with origins in India.

The critical ingredient in Golden Milk is turmeric root. Turmeric contains the chemical known as Curcumin, an incredible bioactive compound. It has been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine due to its high antioxidant profile and to support a healthy immune system. You may also recognize the cousin of turmeric at your local grocery or health food store, ginger. Like ginger, turmeric root is known for its branching tube-like roots, rhizomes, that lay just below the soil’s surface.

To complement turmeric’s nutritional profile, this CBD-infused Golden Milk combines a handful of nutrient-dense foods, including ginger root powder, Himalayan pink salt, and black pepper. Black Pepper contains another chemical known as piperine. Piperine has been shown to enhance Curcumin’s absorption of the body, which means more of the compound is accessible to your body’s entire chemical system.

People have enjoyed Golden Milk worldwide, primarily due to the collective health consensus regarding the benefits of turmeric. For thousands of years, Golden Milk’s most simple recipe has more often been the combination of turmeric, milk, and occasionally honey. Part of the unique history of this beverage is that many different regions of the world have developed other recipes.

In that same tradition, we’ve revisited Golden Milk and made something unique to The Brothers. Our Golden Milk is an easy-to-mix blend of organic coconut milk powder, low-glycemic coconut sugar, fresh organic turmeric, ginger, vibrant Vanilla beans, and an array of savory & illuminating spices. We’ve also added an adequate serving of CBD, sourced from US-grown hemp and tested for purity by licensed third-party laboratories.
