How to make turmeric and ginger tea

I drink this tea whenever I feel under the weather. Turmeric has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antiviral properties. Ginger is great for digestion, combats nausea and is also anti-inflammatory and antiviral.

Ingredients

• 2 cups boiling water
• 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger or fresh ginger
• Fresh lemon
• Maple syrup - optional

Directions

Boil all the ingredients together for 10 minutes. Squeeze a good bit of lemon into your tea. Use the maple syrup as a sweetener, if needed. Pour your tea into a cup through a strainer.
