1. Prepare the Ginger: Start by peeling the ginger root and then slicing it thinly. This increases the surface area, allowing more of its flavors and benefits to infuse into the milk.
2. Heat the Milk: Pour your choice of milk into a small saucepan and place it over medium heat. Allow the milk to warm up slightly before proceeding to the next step—it should be hot but not boiling.
3. Add the Ginger: Once the milk is warm, add the sliced ginger directly into the pan. Stir gently to ensure the ginger pieces are well submerged and begin releasing their flavors.
4. Simmer: Allow the milk and ginger mixture to simmer gently for about two to three minutes. Keep the heat low to prevent the milk from boiling over and to ensure that the ginger infuses slowly, releasing its aromatic and flavorful oils.
5. Strain and Serve: After simmering, take the saucepan off the heat. Strain the milk to remove the ginger slices, and pour the infused milk into a cup. If you desire a bit of sweetness, you can add a teaspoon of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra flavor boost.
