Ingredients: 1-1/2 inches  of turmeric root (powdered turmeric can be used too) (no need to peel it) 2 cups of coconut milk 1 inch piece of ginger root  (no need to peel it) 1/4 tsp black pepper (black helps with the viability of the curcumin) sweetener of your choice (I used 1 pack of stevia) Divide the coconut milk in two portion.  Pour 1 portion in the blender along with the turmeric and ginger and blend.  Pour the  remaining coconut milk in a pot (if using the stove top) or a microwavable container (if you are using the microwave) and bring to a boil.  (I used the microwave), then add the boiled milk to the mixture in the blender. Blend for about 1 minute to ensure that the mixture is well blended together.  Pour some of the mixture into a cup and add your sweetener and sprinkle on the black pepper, then stir and drink.
