Make a big pot to sit on the stove and dip into it through the day.

Prep 5 min
Makes 2 cups

Ingredients

1 tbsp grated ginger
1-2 lemons (depending on size)
½ tsp ground turmeric or 1 tbsp grated fresh turmeric
1 tiny pinch dried chilli flakes
a few grinds of black pepper
honey (pref. raw), to sweeten

Method

  1. Put the ginger into a teapot. Squeeze in the juice of the lemons, add the ground or fresh turmeric, chilli flakes and black pepper, then pour 600ml just-boiled water over the mix.
  2. Leave to cool slightly, then sweeten with a little honey (this will make sure the amazing properties of the honey aren’t killed by the heat of boiling water).
