Turmeric tea is more than tasty... consuming turmeric (whether in tea or in curries, soups, sauces, or other cooking) supports digestion, immune function, the liver, and even possibly offers protection from some types of cancer.
This tea actually maximizes the natural antioxidant power of turmeric because it is a) hot and b) combined with other beneficial spices and a little bit of fat.

This may stain blenders and countertops. The color will eventually fade, but making a thick paste of baking soda and water and scrubbing the stain can help.
Recipe can be halved or doubled if needed.
