Since winter is setting in, that must mean cold and flu season is here as well. This week, I’m focusing on immune boosting recipes. You don’t need to wait until you’re sick to enjoy these super healthy recipes!
2 inch piece of turmeric root cut in thin rounds. No need to peel the skin (can be found at Whole Foods – otherwise use 1 teaspoon turmeric powder)
2 inch piece of ginger cut in thin rounds. No need to peel the skin
Tiny pinch of cayenne pepper
1 crack of black pepper
Juice of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon virgin coconut oil optional
Raw Honey
Directions
Put first 5 ingredients in a pot and bring to a simmer for 7 minutes. (don’t boil. According to flavcity.com, this destroys the nutrients in the turmeric)
Remove from heat and strain.
Allow the tea to cool slightly. Pour into a cup and add the honey.
