Make a turmeric drink!
-
In general, we recommend that you do not drink too many calories here - you get an unnecessary amount of energy from it, and many high-calorie drinks are also packed with sugar , which of course is not very healthy. Water, tea and possibly coffee are therefore usually the best options. However, there are some exceptions - and a turmeric drink, (which provides a small amount of calories) - is one of them!
-
The ingredients in this drink all have super healthy properties, and the fact that it also has a wonderfully fresh taste is a bonus. We'll tell you exactly how to make it today!
Turmeric
-
Let's first look at the main ingredient - turmeric, as the name implies. This spice, also called turmeric, is still relatively unknown in the Netherlands; if people already know what it is, it is often mainly because of the beautiful yellow color it can give your curries. A shame, because the stuff has a lot more to offer and is even seen as one of the most medicinal medicines in the world!

It has especially powerful anti-inflammatory properties, which means that it can provide long-term protection against numerous diseases, see this study, among others. For example, it seems that turmeric reduces the risk of migraines, depression, joint problems, bronchitis, Alzheimer's and possibly even cancer.
Ginger
-
However, turmeric is not the only healthy ingredient in turmeric lemonade. It also contains ginger - another spice that is known for its medicinal properties and has been used as a medicine for centuries by many Asian cultures. Again, it counteracts inflammation, which only further enhances the effect of the turmeric.
-
In addition, it is good for digestion and prevents stomach complaints. Those who are nauseated will certainly benefit from a glass of warm ginger tea. Finally, ginger can have an analgesic effect - and of course it has a wonderful warm taste that is characteristic of this recipe.

Lemon juice
-
The last important ingredient of this healthy turmeric drink is the lemon juice. Lemon also has an anti-inflammatory effect, although it does not seem to be as strong as with turmeric and ginger. However, there are a lot of other advantages!
-
Lemon is full of vitamin C, which strengthens the immune system. It also has a strong detoxifying effect and kills various types of pathogenic bacteria. So you can certainly get a good portion of this regularly!

For flavor, you can add another half a teaspoon of cinnamon, and a quarter teaspoon of black pepper will help your body absorb the turmeric better. Mix well together and keep the turmeric drink in the fridge.

If you want to take it a bit more thoroughly, you can also make a kind of 'latte'. Bring 400 ml of almond milk and the other ingredients to a boil over medium heat. Please note that it can foam well, so keep stirring with a whisk. Those who like to make a slightly sweeter drink can also add some stevia or honey to taste. Let it cool down and sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon!
