Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups of coconut milk. I highly recommend this coconut milk - its the only one without preservatives and is just pure coconut in BPA free cans. (You can also use almond milk)
• 1 tsp (and you can work up to 1 TBL) of coconut oil. This adds more good saturated fats and anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties
• 1.5 tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp nutmeg
• 1 piece of fresh peeled and sliced ginger or ½ tsp ginger powder
• 1 tsp of grade b maple syrup or honey to taste
• a sprinkle of black pepper (optional) - this enhances the bodys ability to absorb turmeric by one thousand times, however, if you have ulcerative colitis, crohns or other sensitivities, please omit.
• Note: You can add filtered water to your liking and consistency.

Directions

• Blend all ingredients thoroughly in a blender or food processor, until smooth
• Pour into saucepan and heat over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes
• Pour into your mug or cup and enjoy all the delicious anti-inflammatory health benefits
