Turmeric Golden Milk is all the rave these days! So why not enjoy them frozen all summer long. Turmeric is an anti-inflammatory, and is said to help boost the immune system, so not only will they cool you off, it’s also a great way to get the benefits of Turmeric.
They also taste great! Not too sweet, with a hint of coconut, these pops are healthy and delicious for adults.

Turmeric is a powerful weapon against inflammation.
Inflammation is a root cause of many health conditions like metabolic syndrome, heart disease, and even cancer. Inflammation has also been shown to play a role in cognitive decline. Turmeric’s powerful anti-inflammatory properties offer a protective benefit. To make it easy to add in, use turmeric in a go-to salad dressing. I love to whisk together white miso paste, tahini, apple cider vinegar, and turmeric—simply delicious and powerful. Get my favorite turmeric salad dressing recipe here. {source}
Turmeric might stave off neurodegenerative diseases.
Because curcumin crosses the blood-brain barrier, research has suggested the brain can also benefit from its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant benefits and stave off conditions like Alzheimer’s. Use turmeric in an all-purpose spice blend for fish or to toss with olive oil and toast up with walnuts, another food shown to protect brain function as we age. {source}
