Instructions
To make Lemon Ginger Tea
Start by thinly slicing a medium lemon.
Take a piece of ginger root, about 4-5 cm in length, and chop it into small pieces.
Heat up water in a saucepan until it reaches a boil.
Turn off the heat, then add the lemon slices and ginger pieces to the pan.
Cover the saucepan with a lid and let the flavors meld together for 5 minutes.
After the time is up, lift the lid and pour the tea through a strainer into your favorite cup.
To Serve
Sweeten your Lemon Ginger Tea with a drizzle of honey or another sweetener to your liking, and enjoy the warmth.
