Turmeric juice is made by washing fresh turmeric root, blending or grating it with water, then straining it. Lemon or ginger can be added for flavor; wear gloves because fresh turmeric can stain hands and surfaces.
Turmeric juice tastes earthy, peppery and slightly bitter, with a sharp flavor from fresh root. Lemon, ginger or fruit can soften the taste, but adding sweeteners also changes the drink’s sugar content.
Turmeric juice contains antioxidant compounds, including curcumin, but it has not been proven to treat or prevent disease. It can be enjoyed as a drink, not as a replacement for prescribed medicine or medical care.
Yes, turmeric juice can be made with turmeric powder, although it will be more like a mixed drink than freshly extracted root juice. Stir it well and strain it if you prefer a smoother texture.
Black pepper can increase absorption of curcumin because it contains piperine, but adding it is optional. It does not turn turmeric juice into a treatment, and the amount of curcumin in a homemade drink can vary.
Fresh turmeric juice is best consumed soon after preparation. Keep leftovers in a clean, sealed container in the refrigerator, and discard them if the smell, appearance or taste changes noticeably.
Yes, turmeric juice can be frozen in a sealed container or in small portions in an ice tray. Stir it after thawing, since the juice may separate, and avoid refreezing a portion once thawed.
Yes, turmeric juice can temporarily stain skin, nails, clothing and porous surfaces because of its strong yellow pigment. Rinse splashes promptly, and use gloves when handling fresh turmeric root.
Many people can include turmeric juice in their routine, but drinking large amounts may cause stomach upset or diarrhea. Daily juice is not equivalent to a concentrated supplement, and more is not necessarily better.
It may: turmeric can affect blood clotting, especially in concentrated amounts, so people taking blood thinners should ask their doctor before drinking turmeric juice regularly. Do not stop or change prescribed medication based on the drink.

Turmeric juice is made by pressing fresh turmeric root or blending grated root with water; some recipes use turmeric powder and add ingredients such as lemon. It is associated with South Asian food traditions, though today you may also find it in juice bars and home kitchens around the world. Its flavour is earthy, peppery and slightly bitter, while the texture ranges from clear to pulpy depending on how it is prepared.
It is usually sipped in a small glass on its own or mixed into fruit and vegetable juices. At 23 calories per 100 g, it is low in energy and contains little protein or fat. If the flavour is too strong, dilute it with water or blend it with sweeter fruit.
