2 servings
- 2 cups water
- 2 green tea bags
- 1 inch fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- ⅛ tsp ground black pepper
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1 large lemon)
- 2 tbsp raw honey, plus more to taste
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey. - 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Combine the water, sliced ginger, ground turmeric, and black pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer for 3 minutes, until the liquid is lightly golden and fragrant.

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the green tea bags and steep for 3–4 minutes, until the tea is a deep amber-gold. Remove and discard the tea bags — do not squeeze them, as this can make the tea bitter.
