I too would like to know which exact turmeric you use, and also why you use coconut oil instead of a healthier choice.

Received my order of Oaktown Spice Golden Milk mix today. I’ve never tasted Golden milk so I prepared it as instructed and it’s delicious!!

Sorry to disagree about the virgin olive oil. That would add flavor to the paste that I think would compete with the nuance of all the spices. I would suggest any sort of healthy non-flavorful oil. Grapeseed does sound good to me. The honey is a preservative and I think it’s important to remember that.
Curious why Erika suggested Olive Oil. Maybe I’m missing something.
I will be serving Oaktown Spice Golden Milk at my Health & Hiking Poles Weekend Retreat at Point Reyes. It’s a healthy way to start the day!
I mix the paste with 2/3 water and 1/3 Calafia Farms Toasted Coconut Milk and it’s YUMMY. -

Finally made the trip to Oaktown Spice in Albany. Such a great shop. Tried the Golden Milk this morning, probably breaking all sorts of rules, but I frothed it all together like a latte and it was lovely!
Hi Lisa!
Thank you for your question. Our Golden Milk blend uses our Alleppey Turmeric. We suggest coconut milk because fat is an essential part of what makes curcumin (the anti-inflammatory chemical in turmeric) available for our bodies to absorb. Its flavor also compliments the beverage. It should be okay to substitute with ghee, butter, or neutral oil, though.
I hope this helps, and happy cooking!
Warmly,
