Ginger Root Milk Elixir

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of milk (dairy or plant-based)
• 1-inch piece of fresh ginger root
• 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
• A pinch of cinnamon or turmeric (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ginger: Peel the ginger root using the edge of a spoon or a vegetable peeler. Slice it into thin pieces or grate it for a stronger flavor.
2. Boil the Milk: Pour the milk into a small saucepan and heat it over medium heat. Bring it to a gentle boil.
3. Add the Ginger: Once the milk begins to boil, add the sliced or grated ginger root. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. This allows the ginger to infuse its flavor and beneficial properties into the milk.
4. Optional Additions: If you like, add a pinch of cinnamon or turmeric to the milk for extra flavor and health benefits.
5. Strain and Serve: After 5 minutes, remove the saucepan from the heat. Strain the milk into a cup to remove the ginger pieces. Stir in honey if you prefer a sweeter taste.
6. Enjoy: Sip this warm and soothing drink, which is perfect for calming the stomach, boosting immunity, and warming up on a chilly day.
