Golden Milkshakes are smooth, creamy, and refreshing, and they're loaded with anti-inflammatory turmeric and other health-boosting spices. This easy drink recipe is one you'll love sipping on hot days!

Oh man, you guys. It feels like it’s been a while since I wrote a post. I dropped off the face of the Internet for the past week! I mentioned that I was heading off the Lightning in a Bottle music festival last week, and I assumed I’d have a way to charge my phone and some service while I was there.

Wellll…turns out, my phone died as soon as we arrived, and my charger didn’t work. I embraced the opportunity and went phoneless from Wednesday to Monday. It was liberating and a much-needed break from my phone and technology-centered life.

It allowed me to really experience the festival, without distractions, and to just be in the moment. If you haven’t heard of Lightning in a Bottle, it’s not your typical music festival. I spent a ton of time at the Craft Lodge, listening to talks about everything from minimalism to essential oils. Or watching poetry and speakers in the Beacon, or posted up at one of my favorite spots: the Learning Kitchen! Yes, a music festival with food and cooking classes. Amazing, right?

So many of the food vendors and culinary classes at the Learning Kitchen had my mind reeling with new ideas. I learned SO much about new herbs and adaptogens that I’m itching to incorporate into some new treats. One of the classes we went to was a hands-on Pickles 101 class, where we made our own deliciously spiced pickles!

While one of the speakers highlighted turmeric as one of the ingredients we were using, I got to thinking about the many health benefits of turmeric, and it’s active ingredient, curcumin. Curcumin has amazing anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. It’s even been shown to have potent anti-cancer properties.

Let’s get golden with these Vegan Golden Milkshakes!

When I got home from the festival and pretty immediately started feeling under the weather, all the superfoods I had just learned about popped into my head. I had made golden milk before, and with the hot weather, my brain immediately went from golden milk…to golden milkshake. Uh, YES please. It’s as tasty as it sounds, and I’m sure it gave my immune system a needed boost.

For the base of the milkshake, I turned to Silk’s new Protein Nut Milk. It’s a blend of cashews and almonds, two of my favorite nuts for milks, and has vegan-friendly pea protein for an extra boost. It’s super creamy and absolutely delicious, and the original version only has 2g of sugar per serving!

Since I prefer my milkshakes super thick and creamy, I poured the nut milk into ice cube trays and gave them a quick freeze. If you don’t have time for that, a few ice cubes blended in will do the trick to help get you a nice, thick shake.

We’ve got all the bold spices…

Of course, it’s not golden without a dose of turmeric. I supplemented the turmeric with ginger and cinnamon as well, along with a pinch of black pepper. The black pepper helps the turmeric absorb more easily. Since turmeric is fat-soluble I added some coconut oil and almond butter to assist in absorption. These also add extra creaminess.

The sweetness in this Golden Milkshake pretty minimal, with just a tablespoon of raw honey to sweeten. However, if you want a sweeter shake, add a few more tablespoons to your taste. You can also use maple syrup or another sweetener to keep it vegan. Topped off with a swirl of whipped coconut cream, these golden milkshakes are nothing short of irresistible.

I sucked mine down super quickly. With the bold spiced flavor and the cool and creamy texture, it made my sore throat feel a whole lot better. This is a treat that’s going to be blended up a lot this summer. Can’t go wrong with a good-for-you milkshake, right?! Enjoy!!

    Delish! We all need a frozen version of golden milk for the summer. And that festival sounds incredible! Speaking of essential oils, I bet some orange or cinnamon essential oil would be amazing in this!

    I haven’t seen that protein milk yet! Interesting! I’m obsessed with making golden milk and lattes so these look sooo goood. That is so smart to freeze the nut milk first. I kinda wanna add frozen banana to this too…maybe make it smoothie bowl!

    I didn’t have almond butter so substituted cashew butter instead—this was soooooo good! I’ll be making it again for sure!
