Step 1. Prepare the Infusion
Begin by placing the black tea, turmeric powder, cloves, and lemon slices in a tea infuser or teapot.

After the steeping time, transfer the infused tea into a cup. If desired, add honey for a touch of natural sweetness. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved.

Elevate Your Tea Experience
- Customize the Spices: Feel free to experiment with the spices to suit your taste preferences. Adding a cinnamon stick or a pinch of nutmeg can bring additional layers of warmth to the tea.
- Healthful Twist: If you’re looking to enhance the health benefits, consider adding a small slice of fresh turmeric root instead of ginger powder to the infusion. Turmeric is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and can complement the immune-boosting qualities of this tea.

Turmeric and lemon are both powerhouse ingredients that offer a range of health benefits. Turmeric is renowned for its ability to soothe digestive discomfort, reduce nausea, and provide anti-inflammatory effects. Lemon, rich in vitamin C, supports immune health and adds a delightful citrusy kick to the tea.
