???? Ingredients For Healing Turmeric Tonic
2 cups filtered water
1 tsp ground turmeric (or 1-inch fresh turmeric root, grated)
½ tsp ground ginger (or 1-inch fresh ginger root, grated)
Juice of ½ a lemon
Pinch of black pepper (essential to activate curcumin in turmeric)
1 tsp raw honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional, for extra metabolism boost)
???? Instructions:
Heat the Water: In a small saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer (do not boil).
Add Ingredients: Add turmeric, ginger, black pepper, and cayenne if using. Simmer for 5–10 minutes.
Strain (if using fresh roots): Strain the tonic into a mug to remove pulp.
Add Lemon and Honey: Let it cool slightly, then stir in lemon juice and honey.
Drink Warm: Sip slowly and enjoy the healing benefits.
???? Notes:
Use fresh turmeric and ginger for a more vibrant and potent tonic.
Always include black pepper — it increases turmeric’s bioavailability by up to 2000%.
You can make a big batch and store in the fridge for 3–4 days. Reheat gently before drinking.
???? Tips:
For a cold version, cool the tonic, add ice, and enjoy as a refreshing detox drink.
Add a splash of coconut milk for a creamy variation (similar to golden milk).
Drink first thing in the morning for better absorption and detox support.
Can be used as a daily wellness shot — just reduce the serving size.
