This spiced cranberry and citrus tea is widely shared online as the “thyroid drink”, and many people who pay attention to their thyroid health like to include it in a balanced diet.
The best part of this thyroid drink is that the tea actually tastes wonderful.
Thyroid Drink Recipe
Ingredients:
- Seven cups of purified water;
- One cup of pure, natural cranberry juice without sweeteners;
- ¼ teaspoon of ground ginger;
- ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon;
- ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg;
- ¾ cup of fresh-squeezed orange juice (it will take about three oranges to get this amount);

Preparation:
- Turn the heat on, put the water on the stove, and wait until it reaches boiling temperature.
- Pour in the cranberry juice and reduce the heat to a lower level.
- Add the ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon, stir the tea, and leave it for about 20 minutes until it reaches room temperature.

A cup (8 oz. or so) a day would be our recommendation. Results vary from person to person.
This drink is a tasty addition to a healthy diet, not a treatment for any thyroid condition. If you have a thyroid problem or take thyroid medication, keep following your doctor’s advice.
Drink and enjoy!
