2 servings
- 2 cups water
- 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
Ingredient noteLow Residue diets limit fibrous roots like ginger, but only a small slice flavors the whole recipe, which is a trace per serving, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
- 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1 large lemon)
Ingredient noteFruit juice contains far less fiber than whole fruit, so the lemon juice used here leaves little residue. If you prefer to always avoid lemon juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 tbsp raw honey
For serving
- 1 thin slice fresh lemon (optional)
