Detox Turmeric Tea - Chai

Ingredients:-

3 heaped teaspoons turmeric (>15mls)
1 heaped teaspoon ground cloves (>5mls)
2 teaspoons ground cardamon (10mls)
2 teaspoons of cinnamon (10mls)
2 teaspoons ground ginger (10mls)
1.5 Litres or 3.5 pints of filtered water (2 days supply?)

I like to add Cayenne or Black Pepper, about 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon. (1.2 - 2.5mls)

Honey to taste
nut milk optional

Method:-

Place all ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.  Add honey or nut milk to taste.

Alternatively, I blend all the dry ingredients in a coffee grinder and use 2.5 teaspoons in 400 ml of water for a mug of tea and keep the rest in a jar.
