I know this is one of those fusion cuisine things that really annoy some people, but I think it’s delicious and warming and just looks like a cup of late autumn sunshine (without being disgusting pumpkin spice which is morally wrong).

Turmeric is really good for you as it reduces inflammation, and cinnamon (usually a second spice in the drink) is great too because it defends against the common cold and other viruses. Not that I’ve had a cold for a couple of years — working from home and masking helps with that!

I make it by putting a quarter of a teaspoon of turmeric, a quarter of a teaspoon of cinnamon, a quarter of a teaspoon of ginger, at least a teaspoon of brown sugar, and some milk in a big mug, microwaving it, and then whisking it thoroughly.
