Golden Milk
This is my favorite winter drink that I love to enjoy just before heading to bed. It's not only quick to prepare, but also filling and nutritious. This comforting drink can be made with a variety of milk options, ranging from cow's milk to oat milk, but my personal preference is almond milk. Aside from its delicious taste, it also offers numerous health benefits such as improving digestion, fighting colds, reducing inflammation, and boosting the immune system.
