You’ve tried Dalgona coffee, now it’s time to try the latest on-trend beverage – Golden Milk! Sounds intriguing, right?! This drink is a concoction of turmeric, coconut milk, raw honey, Himalayan pink salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk these ingredients together, and you have your Golden Milk concentrate. The concentrate can be added to your milk of choice and served warm or chilled. Why turmeric? Functionality continues to be important, and turmeric is believed to help fight infections, reduce inflammation, and support digestive health. Golden Milk is a great way of adding delicious and better-for-you joy to your day!

See, I told you turmeric is the latest and greatest trend! Based on insights from Cargill’s research on consumer preferences in choosing a snack, turmeric, pumpkin seeds, and probiotics are new ingredients to be on the lookout for as folks continue to focus on health & function. Cargill dove into 4 key snack categories: snack bars, salty snacks, candy, and sweet baked goods. They wanted to understand how parents choose snacks for themselves and their kids. It’s no surprise that taste and affordability were important factors in choosing a snack. Interestingly, adults placed a higher emphasis on taste and flavor when choosing a snack for themselves, but switched to nutrition and healthfulness when choosing a snack for their kids. And ‘natural’ was definitely important, especially for sweet baked goods. Now I’m slowly going down a turmeric rabbit hole… turmeric milk, turmeric beauty mask, turmeric tooth paste…it goes on and on!
