INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger root, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • Optional: 1 cinnamon stick or 2–3 whole cloves for added depth

INSTRUCTION

  2. Boil the water: Place 2 cups of water in a small saucepan and bring to a rolling boil.

  4. Strain the tea: Remove from heat and strain the liquid into a cup, discarding the ginger slices and spices.
  5. Add honey and lemon: Stir in honey while the tea is still warm, then add freshly squeezed lemon juice. Adjust sweetness and tartness to preference.
  6. Serve immediately: Pour into a mug and enjoy hot. For a chilled version, allow the tea to cool and serve over ice.
