Turmeric Ginger Lemonade - Vegan recipe hero image

Whenever I'm in need of a little sunshine on a cloudy day, I whip up a batch of this Turmeric Ginger Lemonade.

The combination of fresh ginger, bright lemon, and earthy turmeric is just so uplifting!

Plus, I can’t help but feel good knowing I'm sipping on something that’s not only delicious but also super nourishing.

I often make a big pitcher and keep it in the fridge, so it’s always ready to enjoy.

Trust me, once you make it, you'll want to keep it on hand too!

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

I love using fresh ginger and turmeric for their vibrant flavors, but if you don’t have fresh turmeric, the powdered stuff works beautifully too. If you want a spicier kick, feel free to add more ginger! And remember, you can always adjust the sweetness to your liking.

Tips & Notes

  • I like to keep my ginger and turmeric in the freezer; they last longer and are easier to grate.
  • For a fun twist, try adding a splash of sparkling water when serving for a fizzy version!

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I’ll throw in a handful of fresh mint leaves for a refreshing twist.
  • If I'm in the mood for something extra special, I add a pinch of black pepper – it enhances the absorption of turmeric.

Storage & Freezing

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. It should stay fresh for about 3-4 days. Just remember to give it a little shake before pouring it out!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this ahead of time?

Absolutely! I often make a big batch and keep it in the fridge for a few days. Just give it a good stir before serving as the ingredients may settle.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Start by grating the fresh ginger and turmeric. If you’re using fresh turmeric, be careful; it can stain your hands! I like to wear gloves when I handle it.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the grated ginger, turmeric powder, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.

  3. 3

    Add the maple syrup to the mixture. Give it a good stir until everything is well combined.

  4. 4

    Now, pour in the 4 cups of filtered water. Stir again to mix everything together.

  5. 5

    Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher. This will remove the ginger and turmeric pulp, leaving you with a beautiful, smooth lemonade.

  6. 6

    Taste it! If it needs a little more sweetness, you can add a bit more maple syrup.

  7. 7

    Serve it over ice cubes and garnish with lemon slices if you’d like. Enjoy it fresh or keep it chilled in the fridge for later!
