GINGER LEMON TEA GOODNESS
- 2 or 3 inches fresh ginger, grated or finely chopped
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 – 2 tsp turmeric (OR 2 inches fresh)
- 1/4 tsp cloves (or 10 whole)
- 1/8 tsp cayenne
- 3 cups fresh water
- juice of 1 whole lemon
- 1 Tbsp raw honey
Stick the ginger and spices in fresh water, bring to a boil, and simmer for quite a long time. It’ll make almost a concentrate. You may take this concentrate, place it in your fridge and add to hot water, fresh lemon juice and honey when you need it. But I like it BIG AND STRONG. So once it’s simmered about 15 to 20 minutes, I add the lemon juice and heat gently. Then I add the raw honey and drink right away. This drink with the added turmeric, cloves and cinnamon is so delicious and has tremendous immune-boosting properties. Drink up!
