[RECIPE IN SHOW NOTES] 

WINTER GINGER TEA is one of the great soothers for people either fighting off a winter cold or just loving a hot drink in freezing weather. ❄️

For me? A ginger tea definitely helps, comforts and soothes...but I would *never* use a ginger "teabag". (They're dusty-tasting and no good 😊.)

Brewing a real tea is easy - you just need some ginger, lemon, honey and if you don't mind the caffeine, a strong loose leaf black tea. (If you don't want caffeine? Leave out the tea leaves.)

Recipe 

Ingredients  

1 tsp Honey  

A nub of fresh ginger 

A slice of lemon  

Method  

In a small-medium teapot, combine 1 tsp of honey (if you have some Manuka Honey lying around and want to use it up, use it here, you deserve it!) 

A nub of fresh ginger, supercharged with flavour and good for you, grated on the wide setting of your box grater or finely sliced (my preference), then bashed with the back of your knife to help the flavour release. 

Finally, a slice of lemon into the actual cup you're drinking from. (Optional: we don't all have slices of lemon lying about.) 

TIP: Allow the tea to brew longer than usual to really release those healing properties!
