3. Simmer:
Once the broth begins to boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and let it cook for about 1 minute, allowing the flavors to meld together.
4. Taste and Adjust:
Taste the broth and adjust the seasonings if necessary. You can add more salt and pepper, a little extra nutritional yeast for depth, or more garlic for a stronger flavor. Optionally, squeeze in some lemon juice for brightness.

Tips for Success:
1. Use HighQuality Bone Broth: The flavor of your tonic will depend largely on the quality of the bone broth. Look for organic, pastureraised options, or make your own homemade bone broth for the best results.
2. Adjust the Seasonings to Taste: Turmeric can be quite potent, so if you’re not sure how much to use, start with a smaller pinch and increase gradually. Similarly, the amount of garlic, salt, and pepper can be adjusted based on your flavor preferences.
3. Nutritional Yeast is Optional: If you’re not familiar with nutritional yeast, it adds a cheesy, savory flavor and extra nutrients, but it’s optional in this recipe. If you’re avoiding yeast or prefer a different flavor, feel free to omit it.
4. Lemon Juice Adds Brightness: A squeeze of fresh lemon juice can elevate the broth, making it more refreshing and balancing the richness of the bone broth. Try adding it last for the best impact.
5. Store Leftovers Carefully: If you have leftovers, make sure to store the broth in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume it within 34 days. Reheat gently, and make sure to stir before drinking.
