Ginger tea is warming, relaxing and soothing for upset stomachs. Many people drink ginger tea to find sore throat and cough relief and other symptoms related to colds or flu.
Making ginger tea is a simple process, which takes less than 30 minutes from start to finish. Before you start boiling the fresh ginger root, be sure to wash, scrub and peel it first.
Add about 2 large glasses of water into the pot, put it on the stove and boil it. Once the water starts to boil, you can turn off the stove and add 2 teaspoons of ginger powder to the water and half a teaspoon of cinnamon powder.
Stir, in order to combine the flavors and aromas into the healthy ginger tea. If you have fresh ginger, use a piece of ginger (about 2.5 cm thick) for each cup of tea.
You can add other spices according to your taste - honey, turmeric or lemon.
