Step-by-Step Instructions
Add the fresh ginger and 2 cups of water to a small pot.
Bring to a gentle boil, lower the heat, and simmer for about 8–10 minutes.
Stir in the turmeric, cinnamon, and a small pinch of black pepper. Simmer for another 2–3 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the extra-virgin olive oil.
