Turmeric - Ginger Milk

Turmeric - Ginger milk is good for common cold. This is suitable for adults as well kids. I normally make this milk with ginger roots. If you want, you can use dried ginger powder.

Ingredients :

1. Milk - 1 Cup
2. Pepper Powder - 1/2 tsp
3. Turmeric Powder - 1/2 tsp
4. Ginger - 1 inch piece
5. Sugar - 1.5 tsp or adjust to your taste




Procedure :

1. Add all the ingredients to milk.

2. Bring to boil.

3. Once the milk is boiled, filter and drink hot.

Dosage : Once or twice on the onset of cold symptoms.
