How do you make your Turmeric Tea/Golden Milk?
I was on a tumeric kick where I was trying to use it in everything- then I decided I really disliked it and haven't used it since, other than the occasional curry
I do know with enough fresh ginger it's good, but what else masks that very earthy/stale taste it has?

I have a small amount of turmeric every day on my Muesli. I buy a supermarket muesli and add about 10 extra ingredients (flax seeds, almonds, walnuts etc). With all those different tastes going on you don't notice the turmeric at all. It's quite a mild taste. I also put quite a bit in my curries. Again you don't notice it in curry, chilli or any dish with strong spices.

I use grated ginger, almond milk, turmeric, ground cinnamon and a cinnamon stick and a pinch of black pepper. I put in a spoonful of sugar too. I can't taste the turmeric that much, although I don't like it in tofu scramble as I can taste it too strongly.

You know, I think it was the black pepper that really got to me! The combo of black pepper with turmeric is supposed to boost it's anti-inflammatory effects, but I really got sick of it! I'll try again with less pepper!
I like that combo of pepper and turmeric with cabbage dishes a lot! I have a dish with shell pasta, cabbage, onions, kasha, and peas with turmeric and black pepper and a bit of allspice
 
A banana and some echinacea tea. I don't have a cold, I just like the tea. I'm trying to work out if I can be bothered to make tofu scramble for breakfast or just have cereal.

To be honest that is the only reason I'm having it as I don't really like the taste of turmeric. I got some turmeric capsules, but they made me gag too. At least in the Golden Milk the taste is disguised. It's so hard to get off a kitchen counter too if you drop turmeric as it really stains!

Yay for moms who know how to make vegan stuff!
