Enjoy the old standby nighttime drink promoting restful slumber. Milk contains a protein alpha-lactalbumin, rich in tryptophan, that tells the brain to sleep. Plus you wake up feeling rested the next morning, without the side effects that often come with sleep-inducing drugs.

Time 3m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 1/2 cups low-fat milk or 1 1/2 cups nonfat milk
3 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Add honey to milk and warm in the microwave.
  • Remove and stir in vanilla.
  • Enjoy and then slumber off to bed!

Tips:

  • Use fresh milk: Fresh milk will give your warm milk a richer flavor and creamier texture. If you don't have fresh milk on hand, you can use store-bought milk, but make sure it's whole milk or 2% milk for the best results.
  • Heat the milk slowly: Heating the milk slowly will help prevent it from curdling. You can heat the milk in a saucepan over low heat, or you can microwave it on low power for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between.
  • Add flavorings: You can add flavorings to your warm milk to make it more enjoyable. Some popular flavorings include honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. You can also add a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of chocolate chips for a special treat.
  • Serve warm: Warm milk is best served warm. You can drink it as is, or you can use it in other recipes, such as hot chocolate or oatmeal.

Conclusion:

Warm milk is a comforting and nutritious drink that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great way to relax before bed or to warm up on a cold day. With a few simple tips, you can make warm milk that is both delicious and healthy.
