A simple warming drink made with ginger, turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon, and a few everyday ingredients.
Ingredients
Step-by-Step Instructions
Add the fresh ginger and 2 cups of water to a small pot.
Bring to a gentle boil, lower the heat, and simmer for about 8–10 minutes.
Stir in the turmeric, cinnamon, and a small pinch of black pepper. Simmer for another 2–3 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the extra-virgin olive oil.
Let it cool slightly. Add a little honey if you prefer some sweetness.
Why These Ingredients?
Ginger: adds a warming, spicy flavor and is widely used in food and traditional preparations.
Turmeric: gives the drink its deep golden color and contains naturally occurring curcumin.
Black pepper: pairs naturally with turmeric and contains piperine.
Cinnamon: adds warmth and makes the drink more aromatic.
Olive oil: adds a small amount of fat and gives the drink a richer finish.
