Ingredients
For one person:
- 250 ml of milk (cow, almond, soy, or other)
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- A pinch of grated nutmeg
- A small dab (approximately 100mg) of Purlema' shilajit resin
- 1 teaspoon of honey (or maple syrup, agave)
- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon of ghee (clarified butter)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk over low heat. Do not let it boil.
- Add the cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg to the hot milk. Mix well.
- Gently add the shilajit resin to the warm milk. Stir gently until completely dissolved (this may take a few minutes). Note: The resin must be completely dissolved for optimal absorption.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add the honey (or maple/agave syrup). Mix.
- If desired, add ghee for a creamier texture and additional benefits.
- Pour the Moon Milk into a mug and enjoy it hot, about 30 minutes before going to bed.
Chef's Tips
For a more intense flavor, you can infuse the spices in the milk for a few minutes before adding the shilajit.
If you are using cow's milk, opt for whole milk for a richer, creamier texture.
For people who are lactose intolerant, almond or soy milk are excellent alternatives.
You can adjust the amount of honey according to your preferences.
