Ingredients & Substitutions
Fresh ginger and turmeric pack a punch, both in flavor and health benefits. If you can't find fresh turmeric, ground turmeric works fine, but fresh really elevates the drink. If you prefer it sweeter, just adjust the maple syrup to your taste!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep my ginger and turmeric roots wrapped in a damp paper towel in the fridge to keep them fresh longer.
- •If you're feeling adventurous, try adding a pinch of black pepper to enhance the absorption of turmeric's benefits!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I toss in some fresh berries like raspberries or strawberries for a fruity twist.
- •If I'm in the mood for something a bit more tropical, I’ll substitute the lemon juice with lime juice and add a splash of pineapple juice.
Storage & Freezing
This drink is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just remember to add the sparkling water right before you drink it for that lovely fizz!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this ahead of time?
