Ginger Healing Detox Tea with Turmeric - Recipe

Inspired by The Seasonal Detox Diet, by Carrie L'Esperance (Inner

Traditions, 2001).

 

Simple Solution

There has been a lot in the news lately about the amazing healing properties

of turmeric, a free-radical-fighting antioxidant-rich curry spice that has

been hailed as a defense against both cancer and Alzheimer's. When we found

this tasty recipe for a warming, detoxifying ginger-turmeric tea, we were

thrilled: after the holiday season, we figured we could use some detoxing

and healing!

 

Then we tasted it, and were totally hooked: it's delicious! Ginger and

turmeric combine with citrus and maple syrup to make the perfect blend of

healing nutrients. We streamlined the recipe to make it ultra-easy, too:

 

INGREDIENTS

 

2 cups water

1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger

1/2 teaspoon powdered turmeric

1 tablespoon maple syrup

Juice of 1/2 lemon

 

1. Bring water to a boil, then add powdered herbs. Simmer for 10 minutes.

 

2. Strain tea into a mug, add maple syrup and lemon, stirring to combine.

Drink warm.

 

Makes 1 serving.
