Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 0.5 teaspoons ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoons fresh ginger (grated)
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch black pepper (optional)
- 0.5 cups unsweetened almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 1 teaspoons raw honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine 2 cups of water, 0.5 teaspoons of ground turmeric, 1 teaspoon of freshly grated ginger, 0.25 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of black pepper (optional).
Place the saucepan on the stove and bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to blend together.
Add 0.5 cups of unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred non-dairy milk) to the pan and stir well.
Simmer the mixture for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring the milk is warmed through.
If you’d like to add sweetness, stir in 1 teaspoon of raw honey or maple syrup at this stage. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
Turn off the heat and strain the tea into mugs using a fine mesh strainer to remove any solids.
Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Low Sodium Turmeric Tea.
