Ingredients
- Bone broth chicken, beef, or turkey 3–4 cups
- Fresh turmeric grated 1 tablespoon (or ground turmeric 1 teaspoon)
- Fresh ginger grated 1 tablespoon
- Garlic cloves lightly smashed 2
- Apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon
- Butter or coconut oil 1 tablespoon
- Black pepper ½ teaspoon
- Salt to taste
- Optional add-ins
- Lemon slices or lemon juice
- Fresh herbs parsley, rosemary, or thyme
- Celery leaves

- Cilantro
Instructions
- Warm a saucepan over medium heat and melt the butter or coconut oil. Add grated ginger and smashed garlic; cook gently until fragrant and softened without browning.
- Stir in turmeric and let it bloom in the fat for 30–60 seconds to release flavor and essential oils.
- Pour in the bone broth and apple cider vinegar. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Season with black pepper and salt. Reduce heat to low and simmer 20–30 minutes to infuse flavors without damaging beneficial compounds.
- Taste and adjust with salt, lemon, or herbs. Serve in mugs or bowls and sip slowly.
Notes
Fresh turmeric has stronger flavor and deeper color than powder.
Wear gloves while grating turmeric to avoid staining.
Flat-tasting broth usually needs more salt or a splash of acid.
Use a generous pinch of black pepper to increase turmeric absorption.
Do not boil aggressively; high heat reduces nutritional benefits and creates harsh flavor.
