1 tablespoon fresh turmeric root, grated (or 1 teaspoon ground turmeric)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger root, grated
1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons raw honey
1/2 teaspoon coconut oil or ghee (optional, for better absorption)
Step 1

Bring water to a gentle simmer in a small saucepan.

Step 2

Remove from heat and stir in black pepper, coconut oil if using, and honey. The black pepper is essential here: it is the traditional partner to turmeric and it gives the drink its warm bite.
