Lemon ginger turmeric honey drink

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a drink from lemon, ginger, turmeric and honey? Very simple and fast. To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. You can adjust the amount of honey, lemons, ginger and turmeric to your taste. You can replace honey with sugar or another sweetener. You can replace fresh ginger with 2 tbsp. l. dry.

2. STEP 2

   

   Since the lemon is used in the drink along with the peel, rinse the fruit thoroughly, scrub with a brush and rinse again. Then cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice out of the halves. It is more convenient to do this with a manual or electric juicer.

3. STEP 3

   

   Using a grater, remove the thin yellow layer of zest, being careful not to pick up the bitter white part. It is the white layer that gives bitterness to drinks. The less it is in the drink, the less bitter it will be.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the ginger root and cut into small cubes or grate on a fine grater. It is ginger that gives the drink its spiciness. Therefore, if you want a drink that is not too spicy, reduce the amount of ginger by half.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place the chopped ginger and lemon zest into the pan. Pour in water. Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, for 5-7 minutes.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add turmeric and cook for another 5 minutes.

7. STEP 7

   

   Strain the resulting drink through a sieve or cheesecloth and cool.

8. STEP 8

   

   Add lemon juice and honey to the still warm drink. Stir thoroughly until the honey is completely dissolved.

9. STEP 9

   

   Pour the drink into glasses. You can serve it warm or chilled. Bon appetit!

It's hot right now and I wanted to cook something refreshing and invigorating. My choice fell on a recipe for a drink made from lemon, ginger, turmeric and honey. I had all the necessary ingredients, except honey. I replaced the honey with the same amount of sugar. I added sugar when the lemon zest and ginger were cooking. The drink turned out to be a beautiful yellow color. Its taste is bright, rich with a pleasant pungency from ginger. Turmeric is felt in the drink, but very harmoniously, not standing out much among other ingredients. The whole family, both children and adults, liked this drink. It perfectly quenches thirst and invigorates. Maria, thank you very much for the recipe!

And I also add a bag of green tea! This drink is especially good for those who want to lose weight or keep fit. Ginger is very useful!

I have heard and read many times that ginger is very beneficial. Yes, both lemon and honey are also useful. But the taste of this drink is very much for everyone; personally, I generally cannot stand the taste and smell of ginger.

I really liked it! You can drink it cold or hot, if desired. If you add a little more ginger, the drink will be more pungent. And this is a real vitamin bomb - you just drink it and feel how good you are doing to your body! Thanks for the recipe!
