Why This Recipe Works

Each ingredient in this wellness blend is carefully chosen for its scientifically backed health benefits:

  • Turmeric contains curcumin, known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

  • Ginger supports digestion, reduces nausea, and may help fight infections.

  • Cinnamon helps regulate blood sugar levels and supports heart health.

  • Lemon juice provides vitamin C for immune defense and detox support.

  • Raw honey adds natural sweetness while offering antibacterial and soothing benefits.

Together, these ingredients create a natural immunity shot that can help with seasonal wellness, joint support, metabolism boosting, and digestive health.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons organic turmeric powder (or 3 tablespoons freshly grated turmeric)

  • 2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger

  • 1 teaspoon Ceylon cinnamon powder

  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • 4–5 tablespoons raw organic honey (adjust to taste)

  • 2–4 tablespoons warm water (to adjust consistency)

  • Optional: A pinch of black pepper (enhances turmeric absorption)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

If using fresh turmeric and ginger, peel and grate them finely. Fresh ingredients provide stronger flavor and higher antioxidant levels.

Step 2: Mix the Base

In a small glass bowl, combine turmeric, ginger, and cinnamon. Stir well to evenly distribute the spices.

Step 3: Add Liquids

Pour in the fresh lemon juice and raw honey. Mix thoroughly until a thick paste forms.

Step 4: Adjust Consistency

Add warm (not hot) water gradually while stirring until you reach a smooth, spoonable consistency. Avoid boiling water, as high heat can reduce honey’s nutritional value.

Step 5: Store

Transfer the mixture into a clean glass jar with a lid. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1–2 weeks.
