Turmeric

Turmeric

Turmeric extract is derived from the turmeric plant, a member of the ginger family. Native to Southeast Asia, the turmeric plant produces a vivid yellow-orange root that is widely used as a spice, particularly in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines. Turmeric extract is typically produced by grinding dried turmeric root into a powder. The extract is known for its active compound, curcumin, which may be responsible for many of the health benefits attributed to turmeric and also gives the root its distinctive colour. 
 
We use turmeric in our bevvies as a way to naturally add colour. We use no artificial colours here!
