You can buy hundreds of kinds of tea, but sometimes it’s nice to make a fresh cup. This warming version is full of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory power, to calm your inflammation so your immune system can pay attention to winter invaders. If you can’t find lemon grass, thinly slice an organic lemon peel.

Heat water in a medium pot over medium heat.
Add turmeric, ginger, lemon grass, and mint to the pot.
