Here’s a recipe for ginger tea. This feels like drinking the sun, bright, warm and awakening. Ginger tea has been used as a remedy against colds, nausea and indigestion for 1000′s of years.

You need

4 cups of water
2-inch fresh ginger piece unpeeled
A lemon slice and honey (optional, but honey is good for sore throats)

To make four cups

Slice the ginger. Put the water in a saucepan and bring it to boil. Add the slices of ginger into the boiling water. Reduce the heat, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Strain the tea into cups, and add lemon and honey to taste. This is also great served icy on a hot summer day.
