Ah, how nice! I’ve been feeling a lot of queasiness lately and was trying to figure out how to incorporate more ginger into my life 😊
qq — would it be better to grate the ginger and turmeric? My understanding is that more of the flavor and nutrients get released that way, not entirely sure tho(?)

Aw sorry to hear about the recent queasiness, Preethi! Grating does release more surface area, so the flavour will be stronger and the tea will taste a bit more intense. For this recipe, we’ve found that thinly slicing works well as well because you don’t need to strain. If you’re craving a bolder ginger kick (especially for queasiness), you can totally grate the ginger, though, just use a strainer to catch all the fibers before drinking. And consider adding less if you don’t want such a strong flavour, or just add more water if it is too strong in the end. Hope this helps, and you feel better soon 🥰
Also curious whether there is any way to freeze this and/or the PUL golden milk recipe in a little shot/ice cube kinda way, so it can be a quick grab and go each day?

Ooohh interesting idea, Preethi! If you give it a try, we’d recommend making a concentrated version of the tea first: simmer the turmeric and ginger a bit longer, strain, and then freeze in ice cube trays, without the lemon or sweetener. When you’re ready, thaw a cube or two, add some water (or milk for golden milk), reheat gently, and then finish with lemon or maple syrup to taste. We’d love to hear how it goes if you test freezing the concentrate! 🫶
