Ingredients
Scale
- 3 tablespoons turmeric powder (organic, finely ground recommended)
- 2 tablespoons ground ginger (or 1 tablespoon dried ginger powder plus 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger)
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves (optional)
- 2 tablespoons raw honey (or maple syrup/agave nectar for vegan option)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil (or ghee/vegan butter)
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder or cornstarch
Instructions
- Measure out all dry spices (turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, cloves) and arrowroot powder into a mixing bowl. Grate fresh lemon zest and ginger if using fresh. (5 minutes)
- Stir the dry spices and arrowroot powder well to create an even spice blend. (2 minutes)
- Warm coconut oil slightly if solid. Add coconut oil, raw honey, and lemon zest to the dry mixture. Mix thoroughly with a silicone spatula until sticky and pliable. Add a tiny bit more honey or warm water if too dry. (5-7 minutes)
- Spoon the mixture into a mini muffin tin or silicone mold, pressing firmly to compact and remove air pockets. (5-10 minutes)
- Cover the mold with plastic wrap or parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm.
- Pop the tea bombs out of the molds gently. Press any crumbled edges back together. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage. (5 minutes)
Notes
Use finely ground turmeric for smooth texture. Freshly ground black pepper enhances turmeric absorption. Adjust ginger and black pepper to taste. Press mixture firmly into molds to prevent crumbling. Store refrigerated or frozen to maintain shape. Substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for vegan option. Coconut oil can be swapped with ghee or vegan butter. Clean molds promptly to avoid turmeric staining.
