📋Soothing Honey-Lemon Ginger Tea

Step 1

Bring 4 cups of water to boil.

Step 2

While water is boiling, you can clean ginger root. Scrub and wash ginger. Do not bother peeling the skin if you are going to strain it out like me. If you are planning to drink it as it is, peel the skin on ginger root.

Step 3

Slice ginger into thin slices. Or you can grate it as well.

Step 4

Once water starts boiling, turn off the heat. Add ginger, lemon slices (if using lemon to steep in the tea).

Step 5

Cover and let it steep for 30 minutes.

Step 6

Strain and drink it at room temperature as it is. Or warm it up and serve.

Step 7

I prefer to add lemon juice to steeped tea as per my taste preference. Add raw honey for sweetened tea – that’s my preference.

Step 8

So to serve like the way I did – steeped and strained tea in tea kettle.

Step 9

Into individual serving cup, squeeze lemon juice. Pour hot ginger lemon tea. Add raw honey to your taste preference.

Step 10

Stir it with cinnamon stick. Garnish with a lemon slice and mint leaves. Serve.
