Golden Milk

(Makes 2 servings)

Whether as a morning pick-me-up or an evening soother, Golden Milk has been a welcome comfort and elixir throughout my chemo treatments. Laced with ginger, it calms the stomach and fortifies your body with good things. When you're feeling queasy, just add more milk. Blend in the Vitamix, heat and serve.

2 cups of almond or coconut milk

1 1/2 tsps. ground turmeric

1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 tsp. raw honey

6 black peppercorns

1/4 to 1/2 inch chunk raw ginger to taste

Pinch of cayenne pepper

(When you're feeling nauseous, omit cayenne and reduce - but don't omit - peppercorns)
