I remember the first time I made this Tropical Turmeric Lemonade on a warm summer day.
I had just come back from the farmer's market with some beautiful lemons and fresh ginger, and I thought, why not add a little turmeric for its golden goodness?
This drink has become a staple in my home, especially when I need a refreshing pick-me-up.
Plus, it’s packed with healing properties that I absolutely love!

Ingredients & Substitutions
Fresh turmeric adds an earthy flavor and vibrant color, but if you can't find it, ground turmeric works just fine. The ginger gives it a nice kick, perfect for digestion, and if you want to make it a bit spicier, feel free to add more ginger! If you prefer a sweeter lemonade, you can use agave or coconut sugar instead of maple syrup.
Tips & Notes
- •I love to experiment with different sweeteners. Sometimes I’ll use a date paste for a more wholesome sweetness!
- •If you have leftover lemonade, I keep mine in a glass jar - it stays fresh for days and looks so pretty in the fridge!
Recipe Variations
- •If I'm feeling fancy, I sometimes add a splash of coconut water for an extra tropical twist.
- •For a fizzy version, you can substitute half of the water with sparkling water for a fun, bubbly drink!
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftover lemonade in an airtight container in the fridge. It’ll stay fresh for about 3 days. Just give it a shake before pouring, as the ingredients may settle.
Frequently Asked Questions
