Notes
- Turmeric may stain your hands and countertops. Wearing hand gloves is useful. The colour on the countertop will eventually fade, but making a thick paste of baking soda and water and scrubbing the stain can help.
- Recipe can be halved or doubled if needed. Increase this recipe by another cup of water for a milder version tea.
- There is no hard and fast rule about the ingredients, just add them to your liking and enjoy the tea with its health benefits. You can skip anything you don’t like and still make the tea with a couple of ingredients.
- This immune boosting tea can be had by anyone and have this tea first thing in the morning on empty stomach for best results.
- A final note on turmeric. It should be consumed responsibly. People with bile duct obstruction, gallstones, and GI disorders including stomach ulcers and hyperacidity disorders should consult with their doctors before using.
