Warm drinks in winter for kids

1. Turmeric milk

Turmeric milk, also known as “haldi ka doodh”, is one of the greatest winter drinks. It has existed since the time of our forefathers. Turmeric is often known as “Golden Milk” because of the colour it imparts to milk when added to it. Turmeric also boosts your immune system. Its antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties protect us against a number of diseases. Spices like clove, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, and ginger can be added for additional health benefits. Turmeric milk is the finest choice for colds, coughs, flu, wounds, joint pain, and other ailments and is one of the best drinks in winter.
