This is a drink I invented about eight months ago. I’d been thinking about all the foods, drinks, and nutrients “they” say you should consume every day, and how impossible it would be to come even close to the daily quota for most—much less trying to do ALL of them! I have even noticed one health benefit already: my Peak Flow. This is the primary reason why I kept drinking it, because I figured it was helping my poor, asthmatic lungs.

Ingredients:
- 1 Green Tea bag
- Boiling water
- 1/4-1/2 tsp Turmeric
- sprinkle Cayenne Pepper
- ~2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
- Honey or sweetener of your choice
-
Instructions:
- Boil the water, allow it to cool slightly, and steep your tea for 5-10 minutes. Remove and discard the tea bag.
- Sprinkle the turmeric into the mug of tea slowly, allowing it to dissolve down into the liquid.
- Add a shake or two of cayenne pepper.
- Add the cocoa powder 1 Tbsp at a time, giving it time to dissolve between spoonfuls.
- Finally, add a squirt of honey or sweetener of your choice. Don't overdo it though--you're not going for "sweet," you're going for "not too bitter to drink."
- Stir together and sip slowly. The contents tend to settle, so you'll want to keep stirring as you drink.
