1
Ingredients
- 1 -inch piece of ginger (sliced in thin rounds (not peeled, see note at the bottom))

Place the ginger pieces and turmeric pieces on a small pot, top with water and bring to a boil for 10-15 minutes. Let it then steep for a few more minutes.
- 2
Add honey, cayenne and black pepper.
- 3
I like to make a large pot (a quadruple recipe) of this tea ahead of time and rewarm it though the day, the longer the ginger and turmeric is allowed to steep, the better.
Notes
I don’t peel the ginger or turmeric, that’s a total pain in the $%#@, rather I srub it clean and usually buy it organic.
