Ingredients & Substitutions
Fresh turmeric can be a bit tricky to find, but I always check my local health food store or farmer's market. If you can’t find it, you can substitute with 1 tsp of ground turmeric. Just remember, fresh is always better! And maple syrup can be swapped out for agave or any other natural sweetener you prefer.
Tips & Notes
- •I love using a glass pitcher because it not only looks pretty but helps keep the drink cold longer.
- •If you want to up the nutritional benefits, try adding a touch of black pepper with the turmeric; it helps increase absorption.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll mix in some fresh mint leaves for a refreshing twist.
- •You could also add a splash of coconut water for a tropical vibe!
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftover lemonade in an airtight container in the fridge. It’ll stay fresh for about three days. Just remember to give it a good shake before pouring, as the ingredients may settle.
