Turmeric has become one of my favorite spices lately. It’s warm, glowing color instantly lightens my mood. I mean, look at that color! Turmeric is actually one of the spices in curry powder and what gives it that quintessential golden hue. Perhaps that’s another reason I’ve been crushing on it lately. Or maybe it’s the fact that it has amazing healing properties and works wonders for your insides.
Lately I’ve been enjoying turmeric in my tea or oatmeal when I feel that my digestion is a little off but to be honest, I love the slightly peppery and citrus-y taste so much that I use it for the flavor it imparts. This tea is a bit of a take on chai and is completely herbal. If you don’t have all of the whole spices available, you can always leave them out and have a straight-up, no-frills turmeric tea. I have a feeling this recipe may reach you just in time as frigid temperatures seem to be the norm in most places right now. And, since some of you may still be recovering from overindulgence during the holidays, it’s perfect for that too. Give turmeric a try and let me know how you like it 🙂

Holy moly it’s the 23rd of December and I have not wrapped one single gift yet! But, I was able to bake and shoot the final post for cookie month. I know all of you are busy doing your own holiday thing but I wanted to go ahead and share these little biscuits in case you still need some baking inspiration, or at the very least wanted to see a new post.
