- As I always say, freshly ground or crushed ingredients make your drink more aromatic. If possible, crush the spices just before you are ready to prepare the drink.
- I have used fresh ginger and fresh turmeric root for additional, natural flavor. But if you cannot find either, feel free to substitute it with powder.
- Adjust all the spices to your taste.
