HOW I MAKE IT

• Combine turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and water in a pot on the stove. Gently bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and let simmer gently for 10-15 minutes.

• Let cool slightly (covered) and then strain through a fine-mesh strainer.

• For each 1 cup serving, add lemon juice from a fresh lemon, or a lemon slice and a bit of raw honey just before drinking.

• Enjoy as a soothing hot tea or as a refreshing cold tea (pour over ice cubes in a glass and garnish with lemon slices and a cinnamon stick)

• Store any extra in a covered glass jar in the fridge.
