Bitter Herb Detox Tea

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon of dried bitter herb (such as dandelion root or milk thistle)
• 1 teaspoon of fresh ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder
• Juice of half a lemon
• 1 teaspoon of raw honey (optional, to counteract bitterness)
• 2 cups of water

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Bitter Herb:
   • Begin by boiling 2 cups of water in a small pot.
   • Once the water reaches a rolling boil, add the dried bitter herb to the pot.
   • Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes to extract the herb’s properties.
2. Add Ginger and Turmeric:
   • After the herb has simmered for 10 minutes, add the grated ginger and turmeric powder.
   • Stir the mixture and allow it to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
3. Strain the Tea:
   • Remove the pot from the heat and strain the tea into a mug, separating the liquid from the herbs and spices.
4. Add Lemon Juice and Honey:
   • Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into the tea.
   • If you find the tea too bitter, you can add a teaspoon of raw honey to balance the flavor, though this is optional.
5. Serve:
   • Sip the tea slowly, savoring its strong, bitter flavor. Remember, the bitterness symbolizes the cleansing and detoxifying properties of the herb, purging the gut of harmful toxins.

Note: This tea serves as a reminder that “Death begins with guts and sugar!” By cleansing the body of excess sugar and toxins, you promote better health and well-being. Incorporate this bitter herb detox tea into your routine to support your gut health and prevent the negative effects of sugar and processed foods.
