Simple, Nourishing Warm Milk Kefir

December 2, 2024 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

This is an ideal fall/winter beverage made with warmed milk, cultured kefir, Ayurvedic jaggery and a pinch of nutmeg. Kefir is a high probiotic beverage that must not be heated in order to preserve its beneficial bacteria. However, when blended with warmed milk, it becomes a delicious, nourishing, warm beverage just right for balancing VATA dosha which is naturally elevated in cool/cold, dry, fall and winter conditions.

Anjeer-Kefir Smoothie with Dates and Raw Honey

September 3, 2024 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist Leave a Comment

In India, figs are called “Anjeer”. They are often enjoyed in a lassi, or for a snack, or dessert. This simple recipe provides probiotic support from the kefir or yogurt. Honey can be added for greater sweetness, and feel free to add additional spices such as cinnamon and/or ground ginger as well. This recipe makes enough for one person but can be doubled, tripled, etc.

Dark Chocolate Cardamom Ice Cream

July 23, 2024 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist 2 Comments

This easy-to-make summer treat can be made non-dairy with coconut milk or another milk alternative if desired. The consistency will vary depending on the “milk” chosen, but the end result will still be very chocolatey. It’s not too sweet, so feel free to add more sugar as well as extras such as cacao nibs, chocolate chips, dried fruits, or chopped fresh fruit or berries.

Darjeeling Green Tea Latte

March 28, 2023 by Alana Sugar, Certified Nutritionist 2 Comments

This is a simple, wonderful tea that can be made with your choice of milk, however, the richer the milk (or nut milk) the creamier and more delicious the tea. If you enjoy dairy products, try this recipe with 6 Tbsp whole milk and 2 Tbsp cream in place of half cup (8 Tbsp) milk. The tea is wonderful hot, but can also be enjoyed cold on a hot summer day.
