Rich, warming, and made with real whole ingredients. - Author: Krista Wade - Tags: Recipe, Paleo, Drink, Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Low-Carb, Keto-Friendly, Nut-Free, Egg-Free, Sugar-Free, Anti-Inflammatory, Bone Broth, Sipping Broth, Turmeric, Ginger, Savory Drink, Coconut Oil, Hot Drink, Collagen, Celiac-Friendly My afternoon slump used to mean another coffee, which then meant I was wired at 10 p.m. and exhausted the next morning. Real helpful cycle, right? Somewhere along the way I started keeping a good bone broth in the fridge and heating a mug of it around 3 o'clock instead. With a little ginger, turmeric, black pepper, and coconut oil stirred in, it stopped being "just broth" and turned into something I actually looked forward to. Savory, warming, and filling in a way that coffee never quite is. This sipper has become a daily ritual, and once you try it, you will probably understand why. --- ## Nutritional Benefits ### Bone Broth and Protein - Bone broth provides collagen-derived proteins and amino acids including glycine and proline, which are found in connective tissue. Research published in the journal Nutrients (2019) notes that dietary glycine may support muscle and tissue maintenance as part of an overall balanced diet. - A good quality bone broth contributes a modest amount of protein per serving, making it more satiating than plain water or herbal tea as a between-meal drink. - Look for broth made from grass-fed or pasture-raised bones for a cleaner sourcing profile. ### Ginger - Fresh ginger contains bioactive compounds, primarily gingerols, that have been studied for their role in digestive comfort. A review in the journal Food Science and Nutrition (2019) found ginger may support healthy digestion and reduce feelings of nausea. - Grating fresh ginger (rather than using powder) gives you a brighter, more pungent flavor and preserves more of its volatile compounds. - Ginger also adds a gentle warmth that makes this sipper feel satisfying even without any sweetener. ### Turmeric and Black Pepper - Turmeric's most studied compound, curcumin, has been the subject of extensive research. A 2017 review in Foods notes that curcumin has low bioavailability on its own. - Pairing turmeric with black pepper is the practical fix: piperine, the active compound in black pepper, has been shown in research to increase curcumin absorption by up to 2000% according to a study published in Planta Medica (1998). - That is exactly why this recipe calls for both, and it is not an accident or a trend. It is just smart stacking. ### Coconut Oil and Healthy Fats - Stirring a small amount of coconut oil or ghee into the broth helps carry the fat-soluble compounds in turmeric and adds a satisfying richness that makes the sipper feel like more than just flavored water. - Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), present in coconut oil, are metabolized differently than long-chain fats, and some research suggests they may support satiety. A review in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (2015) discusses their role in weight management as part of a healthy diet. - Ghee is another excellent option, particularly if you tolerate dairy fats well. It is clarified and generally considered paleo-compatible. --- ## FAQs ### Can I use chicken bone broth instead of beef? Absolutely. Chicken bone broth is lighter in flavor and works beautifully here if you prefer something a little more delicate. Beef broth gives you a deeper, more savory base. Use whichever you have or enjoy most. ### Can I use ground ginger instead of fresh? You can in a pinch. Start with 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger since it is more concentrated than fresh, and adjust from there. Fresh ginger has a brighter, more lively flavor, so if you have it, use it. ### Is this Whole30 compliant? Yes, as long as your bone broth is Whole30 compliant (no added sugars, no off-plan additives, check the label). All other ingredients are fully Whole30-friendly. ### Can I make this in a larger batch? Yes. Scale up the broth and spices and keep the spiced broth in a jar in the fridge for up to 4 days. When you are ready for a mug, just heat what you need and stir in the coconut oil and lemon juice fresh. The fat separates in the fridge so always reheat before drinking. ### Why not boil the broth? Keeping it just below a boil preserves more of the delicate proteins and keeps the flavor cleaner. A full rolling boil can also make the broth a little cloudy and slightly bitter. Steaming hot is exactly what you want. ### Can I add anything else to customize it? This is such a good base to play with. A few things that work well: a small knob of fresh-grated horseradish for serious sinus-clearing heat, a splash of apple cider vinegar instead of lemon juice, or a few fresh thyme leaves steeped right in the broth as it warms. Keep the add-ins whole food and you really cannot go wrong. --- If you make this sipper, I really want to hear about it.

Deeply savory, totally paleo, and ready in under 10 minutes. This is the cozy mug you reach for instead of a second cup of coffee. - Prep time: 5 min - Cook time: 5 min - Total time: 10 min - Servings: 1 serving ### Ingredients - 1 1/2 cups grass-fed beef bone broth (or chicken bone broth) - 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely grated - 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric - 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder - 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper - 1/8 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste - 1 teaspoon coconut oil or ghee - 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice - Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional, for heat) - Fresh parsley or a thin lemon round, to garnish (optional) ### Instructions 1. Pour the bone broth into a small saucepan and set over medium heat. 2. Add the grated ginger, turmeric, garlic powder, black pepper, and sea salt. Stir to combine. 3. Heat gently, stirring occasionally, until the broth is steaming hot but not boiling, about 4 to 5 minutes. Do not boil, as high heat can degrade some of the delicate proteins. 4. Remove from heat and stir in the coconut oil (or ghee) and fresh lemon juice until the oil is fully melted and incorporated. 5. If you prefer a very smooth texture, pour through a fine mesh strainer to remove the ginger fibers. 6. Transfer to your favorite mug. Add a pinch of cayenne if you want a little kick. Garnish with fresh parsley or a lemon round if desired. Sip slowly and enjoy. ### Nutrition per serving - Calories: 80 - Total Fat: 5g - Carbohydrates: 3g - Protein: 6g - Dietary Fiber: 0g - Sugar: 1g
