Ingredients
Scale
- 1 inch fresh ginger, thinly sliced or grated
- 1 whole lemon, sliced or juiced
- 4 cups water
- Optional: 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
Instructions
- Place the sliced or grated ginger into a small saucepan.
- Pour the 4 cups of water over the ginger.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. This allows the ginger flavor to infuse.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Strain the tea into mugs, discarding the ginger pieces.
- Squeeze in fresh lemon juice or add lemon slices.
- Stir in honey or maple syrup if you prefer a touch of sweetness.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh start.
Notes
- You can prepare a larger batch and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove.
- For an extra boost, add a pinch of turmeric during the simmering stage.
- Taste the tea before adding sweetener; the lemon provides natural tartness.
