Tea Ingredients
- 6 cups Water
- 1 tsp Turmeric powder
- 2-inch piece of Ginger, minced
- 1 Lemon, squeezed (juice only)
- A pinch of Black Pepper Powder
Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients: Mince the fresh ginger and squeeze the juice from one lemon to have all ingredients ready before you start.
- Combine ingredients in saucepan: Place a saucepan on medium heat and add the 6 cups of water, turmeric powder, minced ginger, lemon juice, and a pinch of black pepper powder into it.
- Simmer the tea: Let the mixture simmer gently for 2-3 minutes on medium heat until it releases a fragrant aroma. This allows the flavors and healing properties of ginger and turmeric to infuse into the water.
- Strain the tea: Remove the saucepan from heat and strain the tea through a sieve to remove ginger chunks and get a smooth, clear liquid.
- Serve: Pour the warm detox tea into cups and enjoy immediately for best flavor and health benefits.
Notes
- Add a sweetener: This tea tastes great without any sweetener, but if desired, you can add natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup to maintain a fresh flavor profile.
- Ditch the red chili: If spiciness is not preferred, simply omit any red chili as it is not essential to the recipe.
- Storage recommendations: Store the prepared tea in a glass jar in the refrigerator for 2-3 days before the flavor degrades.
- Freezing tips: Freeze the tea in ice trays or silicone molds, then transfer to an airtight container for up to 1 month of storage.
- Reheating instructions: To reheat, simply boil the desired amount of frozen cubes in a pan.
- Meal prep hack: Make the tea in bulk and freeze in molds for convenient, ready-to-use servings.
