Turmeric Lemon Honey Drink

Ingredients:

200 ml water (about ¾ cup)

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1 teaspoon raw honey

A pinch of black pepper

Juice of half a lemon (about 1-2 tablespoons)

Instructions:

1. Heat the water: Warm the 200 ml of water in a small saucepan or microwave until it’s hot but not boiling (around 60-70°C / 140-160°F).

2. Add turmeric: Stir in 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder until fully dissolved.

3. Add black pepper: Add a pinch of black pepper. This helps increase the absorption of curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric.

6. Serve: Pour into a cup and enjoy warm.
