🌟 Tips
- Turmeric boost: Add a pinch of black pepper to enhance absorption of turmeric’s active compounds.
- Creamy variation: Blend with coconut water or coconut milk for a tropical twist.
- Make-ahead: Store in the fridge for up to 2–3 days; stir before serving.
If you want, I can also give a sparkling version of this drink using carbonated water for a fizzy, tropical refresher.
