LJ, I have Banyan Botanicals Pippali powder to use with this milk. Am confused about herbs proportions in mixing? Equal parts?

Etabeta, are you planning to make medicated milk with the Pippali?

Duh, now I see which comment you are referencing.

You want only 1/2 t. of Pippali with the milk and water. I would even start with 1/4 t. Pippali, as it is pretty hot, and gauge how hot you want/can handle. It’s not as hot as very hot red chili but still pretty hot. I should have formatted info better but time constraints.

The basic medicated milk recipe is:

1/2 t. (can start with 1/4) to 1 cup milk and 1 cup water and simmer until liquid is reduced to 1 cup.

Can add some natural sweetener if desired. (I do)

Some books say to add less water, this makes the process quicker, but it only takes a few minutes. The longer it simmers, the more potency of the herbs goes into the milk, but I’ve done it with less water. I generally use equal amounts milk and water. No really hard and fast rules.
