The blend

Is there caffeine in it?

Golden Milk has none. Turmeric, Ceylon cinnamon, cardamom, maca, ginger and black pepper are all caffeine free, which is why we suggest it in the evening. The Cacao blend is different: cacao contains naturally occurring caffeine, along with theobromine, a gentler stimulant.

What does it actually taste like?

Warm and spiced. Turmeric gives it an earthy base, Ceylon cinnamon and cardamom bring a fragrant warmth, and ginger and black pepper add a little bite. There is no added sweetener, so it is not a dessert drink — it tastes like turmeric, because there is a real dose of turmeric in it. Sweeten it to taste if you like.

Is it sweetened?

No. Golden Milk has no added sugar or sweetener, so you decide how sweet your cup is. A café turmeric latte is usually around 20g of sugar.

Is it organic, and what's not in it?

The blend is organic, though not certified. There are no natural or artificial flavourings, no anti-caking agents, no gums, no maltodextrin and no filler powders sold as fibre. Six ingredients, all named on the pouch.

Drinking it

Morning or night?

Either, but night is what we built it for. It is caffeine free, it settles the stomach, and it is easier to hold a habit at a fixed point in the evening than to slot one into a busy morning. With turmeric, consistency is the thing that matters.

How much milk, and which milk?

Half a tablespoon to a mug of milk. Oat is our favourite for body, almond is lighter, dairy is the traditional version and full-fat milk carries the curcumin well. Heat it until it moves, not until it boils.

Can I make it cold, or put it in a smoothie?

Yes to both, though it disperses better in something warm. In a cold drink, blend or shake it rather than stirring. In a smoothie it disappears into banana and cacao completely.

How long does a pouch last?

About 25 cups, at half a tablespoon each. Reseal it after each use and keep it somewhere dry and out of the light; it holds for twelve months unopened.

Subscription

How does the subscription work?

One pouch a month at 15% off, with free shipping on every delivery. Nothing is locked in — you manage it yourself from your account, and you can move the date, swap the flavour, skip a month or cancel outright without emailing anyone.

Can I skip or pause a delivery?

Yes, any number of times. We email three days before each charge, so if you are still working through last month's pouch you can push it back or skip it entirely from that email.

Can I switch between Golden Milk and Cacao?

Any month, at no cost. Plenty of people alternate — Golden Milk through the week, Cacao at the weekend.

How do I cancel?

Account, then Manage subscription, then cancel. It takes one click, it takes effect immediately, and we do not ask you to phone or reply to a retention email first.

Orders, safety and delivery

Are there allergens I should know about?

The blend contains no dairy, gluten, nuts, soy or egg, and it is vegan. It is blended by hand in a small space that also handles other dry botanical ingredients — the full statement is printed on the pouch.

Can I drink it while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Culinary amounts of these ingredients are widely used in cooking, but turmeric, ginger and maca in daily concentrated form are worth raising with your doctor or midwife first. The same applies if you take blood thinners or are preparing for surgery. This is a food, not a medicine, and we would rather you asked.

How fast is delivery?

Orders before midday Adelaide time go out the same day, tracked. Two to five business days to most Australian metro addresses, a little longer regionally. Full rates and estimates are on the shipping page.

What if it isn't for me?

Thirty days from delivery, opened pouch and all, and we refund it. You do not need to post anything back. The returns page sets out exactly what that covers.

Nothing to lose

Drink the whole pouch. If it isn't for you, we refund it.

Thirty days from delivery, opened or half-empty, no need to post anything back. That's the guarantee in full.
