Spa Index Kitchen Notes
If you do not have fresh ginger juice (available bottled from The Ginger People, or, reserved from crushed fresh ginger), substitute a piece of sliced ginger, or, 1/4 teaspoon of ginger powder. Do not use candied or crystallized ginger, which is mostly sugar.
"Creamy Mug of Warming Deliciousness” is more accurate. It just plain feels good to drink this slightly sweet, slightly spicy blend of heated almond (or coconut) milk, turmeric, ginger, cayenne and honey. Turmeric tea will perk you up in the morning, calm you down at night and soothe sniffles and sore throats. It’s also a really pleasant way to end a meal." -- Mark's Daily Apple
