Best Coconut Ginger Tea With Lime Honey And Turmeric Recipes

COCONUT GINGER TEA WITH LIME, HONEY AND TURMERIC

Coconut Ginger Tea With Lime, Honey and Turmeric image

I love the fair trade teas produced by Zhena's Gypsy Tea, especially her Coconut Chai. Inspired by the perfume of coconut in that tea, I infused shredded coconut and ginger and added a little fresh lime juice, honey and a smidgeon of turmeric. The idea of making a turmeric and honey paste comes from Heidi Swanson's 101cookbooks.com.

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1/4 cup finely grated unsweetened coconut
2 to 3 teaspoons minced ginger
2 1/2 cups boiling water
Up to 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, to taste
For each serving: 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons honey or honey-turmeric paste (see below)
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

Place the coconut and ginger in a large pyrex measuring cup or teapot and pour on the boiling water. Cover and allow to steep for 30 minutes or longer. Strain into another measuring cup, a bowl or a teapot and press the coconut against the strainer to extract all the flavorful liquid.
Reheat the infusion and pour into cups. Stir 1/2 to 1 teaspoon lime juice and 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons honey or honey-turmeric paste into each cup.

A quick and easy paste made with ground turmeric, pepper, coconut oil, and honey to use in cooking or beverages. Add a tablespoon or two at the end of cooking of your favorite soups, stews, or cooked meals. Add 1 tablespoon or more to a cup of hot water or milk (or milk substitute) for a lovely drink. Add lime, ginger, and cinnamon for a flavorful break from the usual tea. Always allow the paste to heat for at least 5 minutes in any of these before consuming.
