Description
A calming, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant-rich tea made with turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, and green tea. It helps boost energy, digestion, and mood naturally.
Ingredients (Servings: 2 cups)
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger (anti-inflammatory, helps digestion)
- ½ tsp turmeric powder (supports joints, antioxidant)
- 1 stick cinnamon (helps regulate blood sugar)
- 1 tsp green tea leaves or 1 bag (rich in antioxidants)
- 1 tsp honey (optional, natural sweetener)
- 2 cups water
- 1 tsp lemon juice (vitamin C boost)
Instructions
- Bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
- Add ginger, turmeric, and cinnamon. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, then add green tea. Let it steep for 3 minutes.
- Strain into a cup.
- Add honey and lemon juice. Stir well.
Tips
- Drink half a cup warm in the morning before breakfast.
- Avoid honey if you’re diabetic — use stevia instead.
- You can prepare a larger batch and refrigerate it for up to 2 days.
- Add a pinch of black pepper — it helps the body absorb curcumin (from turmeric) better.
