Ingredients:
1 cup of milk (whole milk or any milk of your choice)
1-2 teaspoons fresh ginger (grated or finely chopped)
1-2 teaspoons honey or sugar (adjust to taste)
A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg (optional, for added flavor)
A pinch of black pepper (optional, for a little kick)
Instructions:
Prepare the Ginger: Start by grating or finely chopping the fresh ginger root. If you prefer a milder flavor, you can use a little less ginger.
Heat the Milk: Pour the milk into a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warm but not boiling.
Infuse Ginger: Add the fresh ginger to the warm milk. Let it steep for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the ginger to infuse the milk with its natural flavor.
Sweeten the Milk: Once the ginger has infused, add honey or sugar to the mixture to your desired sweetness. Stir until fully dissolved.
Optional Spices: For an extra touch of warmth, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the milk. If you like a slight spicy kick, a pinch of black pepper can enhance the flavors.
Serve: Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the ginger out if you don’t want the bits in your drink. Pour the creamy ginger-infused milk into a cup and enjoy!
