Calories 55 kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup turmeric , peeled and finely chopped
- 1 cup ginger , finely chopped
- 1 cup honey
- 8 lemon , peeled and finely chopped
- 2 lemon for juice
Instructions
-
Wash turmeric and ginger. Leave them on a plate for 2-3 hours to air dry.
-
Take a large mason jar, dry and sterilize it. All the ingredients and the jar should be completely dry for preserving the tea.
-
Add ginger, turmeric, lemons, lemon juice and honey to the jar. Mix well.
-
Your can use the tea immediately, but for more probiotic properties and health benefits, let it ferment for 2-3 days on the kitchen counter. Then store it in the fridge.
-
To preserve the tea for a longer time, I take out 5-7 days quantity in a separate jar for daily use. Otherwise opening and taking directly from the main jar every day will reduce its life.
-
Every morning, mix 1 to 2 teaspoonful of tea with warm water, add a pinch of black pepper and enjoy!!

Recipe Notes
- Make sure that you use a completely dry spoon when taking the tea out of the jar.
- Wear gloves while using turmeric, otherwise it will stain your hands.
- I used Vidalia Chop Wizard for chopping turmeric and ginger.
- You can add 1/2 cup honey more if you want your tea to be on the sweeter side. I like mine less sweet.
