Lots of information has been written about the healing properties of turmeric.  Turmeric contains at least 20 antibiotic compounds, 14 known anti-cancer compounds, 10 antioxidants and 12 anti-inflammatory agents.  Try this tea now and use it through the winter months to keep flus and colds away.

Golden Goddess Tea Recipe

Ingredients:

3 cups water
1 fresh turmeric root (1 to 2 inches), peeled and thinly sliced
(*Or you can use dried turmeric powder)
1 ginger root (1 inch), thinly sliced
5 tulsi leaves (fresh or dried), whole
1 lemon, fresh squeezed
Pinch of ground black pepper
Honey to taste

Preparation:

– In a tea kettle or saucepan, add water, turmeric, ginger, pepper and tulsi.
– Bring to a boil and let cook for 10 minutes.
– Using a small strainer (optional), pour the liquid only into 2 serving cups.
– Squeeze 1/2 of a lemon into each cup.
– Add honey to taste.
– Serve and enjoy!

(If you used the dried forms of any of the herbs above, it’s a good idea to pour the tea through a strainer and then into serving cups.)
