Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- juice of 1/2 an orange
- honey to taste
Instructions
- Heat the water and spices: Place two cups of water in a saucepan over high heat. Add turmeric and cinnamon and whisk to combine evenly.
- Simmer the tea: Once the water reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently for ten minutes to allow the spices to infuse thoroughly.
- Cool the tea: Remove the saucepan from heat and let the tea cool to a comfortable temperature for drinking.
- Add orange juice and honey: Whisk the tea again to mix any settled sediment, then pour over ice. Add the juice of half an orange and sweeten with honey to taste.
- Serve and enjoy: Stir occasionally while drinking to prevent sediment from settling at the bottom of the cup.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of honey according to your preferred sweetness level.
- For a stronger turmeric flavor, increase the turmeric slightly but be mindful of its strong taste.
- This tea can be served hot or cold depending on your preference.
- Whisking before serving helps keep the turmeric evenly dispersed to maximize flavor and health benefits.
