Ingredients

  • 12 ounces water filtered
  • 1 Tablespoon MCT Oil see link below
  • 1 Tablespoon butter pastured; or ghee or coconut oil (Use coconut oil for AIP.)
  • 1 Tablespoon gelatin sustainably-sourced, see link below
  • 1 inch nub fresh ginger , cut into several pieces (washed but unpeeled)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon ground
  • 1/8 teaspoon turmeric ground, or use saffron 15 threads (which are lovely and balance hormones; see link below)
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper about 15 grinds of freshly ground black pepper (optional for AIP)
  • sweetener: stevia, to taste, for Keto OR 2 teaspoons raw honey or pure maple syrup for Paleo, AIP and GAPS
  • 1/4-1/2 teaspoon bulk cordyceps powder optional

Instructions

  • Heat water in small saucepan while you measure ingredients into blender.
  • Measure in: MCT oil, butter, ginger, sweetener, cinnamon, turmeric or saffron, and black pepper.
  • When water is hot but not yet boiling, turn off heat and add to blender. Add gelatin.
  • Use caution when blending hot liquids. Blend on medium-high speed for 45 seconds, (to fully liquify fresh ginger).
  • Serve. Relax while you drink it.

Notes

These are the saffron threads I buy and love.
Here's the gelatin I use. You can get 10% off at checkout by entering the code BEAUTIFUL 10.
Here's the best price on organic turmeric.
Here's a good quality MCT oil with caprylic and capric acids, for big energy!

Additional Optional Add-in

There's an herbal tincture I also like to add: licorice. It can be added to the blender before blending or stirred into the hot cup of tea after serving. But use caution or avoid if you have hypertension.
Licorice is not only an anti-inflammatory and excellent for the endocrine system (the body's system of hormones and glands), it also aids in digestion.
