I know how to make turmeric tea now. Bring one cup of water to a boil and pour over one-quarter teaspoon of ground turmeric (from the spice rack). Let steep for 10 minutes, covered to keep hot, and stir occasionally. Pour into second cup trough ordinary tea strainer. Not all sediment will be removed, but don't worry. In the second cup, after straining, add one diced ginger candy. This adds sweetness and the ginger combines nicely with turmeric. (One ginger candy has 5 grams of sugar. See http://www.gingerpeople.com). The tea will still be hot. Stir to dissolve the ginger candy, then enjoy.
I made this tea for the first time today and it was delicious, stimulating but without caffeine.
