Instructions
Warm the Oat Milk
Pour the oat milk into a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat stirring frequently. Warm it gently until steaming but do not bring it to a boil as this can scorch the milk and destroy heat-sensitive nutrients.
Whisk in Adaptogens and Spices
Reduce heat to low and whisk in the ashwagandha powder cinnamon and nutmeg. Whisk continuously for about one minute to ensure the powders fully dissolve and the spices bloom in the warm milk.
Add Sweetener and Vanilla
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the raw honey and vanilla extract. Adding honey off the heat preserves its natural enzymes and ensures it does not lose its beneficial properties through overheating.
Froth and Serve
Use a handheld milk frother to create a creamy foam on top. Pour into your favorite mug and sip slowly about 30 minutes before bed as part of your evening wellness ritual.
