Golden sweet water
Nour Antoun
A sunny honey-and-turmeric cooler that tastes like summer in a glass.
Golden Sweet Water started as a way to use up a jar of mountain honey and has become one of my most-requested drinks.
Warm 2 tablespoons of honey with a pinch of turmeric and a few slices of ginger in a little water until dissolved. Let it cool, then top with sparkling water, a squeeze of orange and plenty of ice.
The colour is gorgeous and the flavour gentle and warming. Make a jug of the honey base in the morning and it is ready for guests all afternoon.
