Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Pour the milk into a small saucepan and whisk in the turmeric until no lumps remain.

  2. 2

    Add the cinnamon stick, cardamom, ginger and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Warm over low heat until small bubbles form at the edges and steam rises. Do not let it boil, or the milk will form a skin and may scorch.

  4. 4

    Keep it just below a simmer for 8-10 min, whisking now and then, until the milk is deep gold and smells of spice.

  5. 5

    Remove from the heat and stir in the honey.

  6. 6

    Pour through a fine sieve into two mugs. For a foamy latte, froth the strained milk with a whisk or milk frother first.

  7. 7

    Serve hot. To drink it cold, let it cool, then pour over ice.
