Ingredients
For the hemp drink
- 1 cup Orijin hemp seeds
- 4 cups of water
For the golden milk
- 1 C. tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tbsp. 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 2 tbsp. teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 C. teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 pinch of black pepper
- 10 drops of liquid stevia (adjust to taste )
Preparation
For the hemp drink
Pour the water and hemp seeds into a blender container. Spray at high speed for 1 to 2 minutes.
Filter the drink using a vegetable milk filter*. Hemp pulp can be easily reused in a recipe, smoothie, cereal or yogurt, or dehydrated or frozen for later use.
For the golden milk
Place all ingredients, including the hemp drink, in a saucepan and reheat over low heat. The mixture should not boil.
To thoroughly combine all the ingredients, return the hot mixture to the blender container. This way you will also obtain a creamy texture.
If you own a milk frother, you can simply heat and froth your drink with this device.
Health !
*If you do not have a milk filter, you can get by with a clean dishcloth or a large piece of folded cheesecloth. On the other hand, if you like making your own vegetable drink at home, using a milk filter is more interesting and much more practical.
