Ingredients
Spices
- 10 gm Turmeric Powder
- 15 gm Ginger fresh, peeled and smashed
- 10 gm Cumin Seeds
- 10 gm Carom Seeds
Instructions
- In a medium pot, combine 1 liter of drinking water, turmeric powder, and smashed ginger.
- Smashing the ginger helps release its beneficial oils and enhances the flavor of the tea.
- Add the cumin seeds and carom seeds to the pot.
- Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low and let the tea simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Add salt just before removing the tea from the heat. Adding salt at the end prevents it from hindering the boiling process and ensures a balanced flavor.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- Ajwain (jwano) or thyme seeds are optional; the tea is still effective without them.
- Thyme seeds can be particularly helpful for colds, but are less essential for fevers.
- This tea is safe to drink even when you're not sick and can help boost your immune system.
Expert Tips
- For a stronger flavor, lightly crush the ajwain seeds before adding them to the boiling water.
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding honey or another natural sweetener after the tea has steeped.
- If using fresh thyme, add a few sprigs along with the other ingredients and remove them before serving.
Storage Instructions
- This tea is best enjoyed fresh. Leftover tea can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but the flavor may change slightly.
