*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).
