Tom Parker Creamery is adding a golden touch to the milk aisle with Golden Milk, a gently spiced whole milk drink inspired by haldi doodh, the traditional Indian drink made with milk and turmeric.
Made with free-range British whole milk, turmeric, cinnamon, honey and black pepper, Golden Milk has a naturally golden colour and a creamy, gently spiced flavour.
It’s designed to be enjoyed cold straight from the fridge or warmed up for a soothing, caffeine-free alternative to an evening coffee.
What about trying it on your cereals for a wonderfully warming breakfast?
The new 500ml glass bottle launches in Waitrose and Ocado from 21 October 2026, with a recommended price of £1.80. There’s no need to measure out spices or wash a saucepan afterwards: just give the bottle a shake, pour, and enjoy.
Golden Milk takes inspiration from a drink with a much longer history than the modern café golden latte. Known as haldi doodh in India, turmeric milk is part of South Asian food culture, with families often making their own versions using spices such as cinnamon, black pepper or nutmeg. Tom Parker Creamery’s ready-to-drink version brings together familiar ingredients in a handy everyday format.
There are plenty of ways to enjoy it. Warm it gently and froth until silky, then finish with a little cinnamon. For a more indulgent mug, add grated dark chocolate or chocolate curls. On warmer days, pour it over ice, or spoon frothy cold milk over an iced glass for a refreshing golden latte.
It can also bring a gentle hint of spice to breakfast. Try it poured over granola or use it to make overnight oats. It’s an easy way to add variety to a balanced diet, with whole milk and traditional spices in one convenient drink.
Rob Yates, CEO of Tom Parker Creamery, described it to That's Food and Drink as “a hug in a mug” when warmed and frothed. That sounds especially appealing on a chilly evening, when a familiar mug and a comforting drink can make home feel just a little cosier.
Golden Milk joins the creamery’s range of added-value whole milks, including Vitamin-Enriched Whole Milk and Bedtime Milk. Like the wider range, it is made with British whole milk and comes in a glass bottle with a recyclable paper label.
Whether you enjoy it cold, warm or over ice, this golden newcomer offers a simple, gently spiced moment of comfort.
