How to Brew Lemon, Ginger and Turmeric Tea

teas.co.uk · 7 min · Serves 1

You'll need

• 1 Good Earth Lemon, Ginger and Turmeric tea bag
• 250ml water at a full rolling boil
• 1 teaspoon honey, to taste
• A grind of black pepper, optional, which helps the turmeric come through
• A slice of lemon, to finish

Method

1. Boil fresh water to a full rolling boil; turmeric needs the full 100C to release its colour and gentle pepper note.
2. Boiling water goes over the turmeric bag in the mug.
3. Cover and steep for 5 to 6 minutes. The longer covered steep is what makes it taste warming and full rather than thin and yellow.
4. Lift the bag out, pressing it against the side a couple of times so all the colour goes in.
5. Stir in honey while it is hot, with a tiny grind of black pepper, which helps the turmeric read more clearly.
6. Finish with a slice of lemon and drink it hot; turmeric fades faster than black tea once it cools.
