Nutritious and very healthy milk with turmeric is recommended not only for adults but also for children. You can make a paste of turmeric and add it to hot milk every day. The drink is served warm: not hot and not cold. If you are preparing it for children, do not forget to mix some flower honey into the milk. The main thing is to get a sweet spice, not a bitter one.
