Description

A soothing, spicy blend of lemon, ginger, garlic, and spices, frozen into easy-to-use “tea bombs.” Perfect for cold and flu season, just drop one into hot water for a health boost.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 whole lemons, peeled
  • 2 large bunches of fresh ginger
  • 1 whole head of garlic
  • 2 tablespoons turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
  • ½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar (ACV)
  • 1 ½ tablespoons honey
  • 3 cups water

Instructions

  • Blend all ingredients until smooth.
  • Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
  • Pour the liquid into a silicone muffin tray, approximately 1/8 cup per portion.
  • Freeze until solid.
  • To use, drop one frozen tea bomb into a cup of hot water. Stir until dissolved and enjoy!

Notes

Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper based on spice preference. For a smoother texture, a cheesecloth works better than a fine mesh sieve.
