Ginger tea has a spicy, invigorating taste. It’s used as a home remedy for indigestion, nausea, and to ward off colds, flu, and sore throats.
I found some Ginger Tea recipes but I don’t know if these will suit my taste.I will have to try these one by one.
RECIPE # 1
water,4 cups
2-inch piece of fresh ginger root
optional:
honey and lemon slice
Peel the ginger root and slice it into thin slices. Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan. Once it is boiling, add the ginger. Cover it and reduce to a simmer for 15-20 minutes. Strain the tea. Add honey and lemon to taste.
RECIPE #2
3 1/4 cups hot water
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh ginger (left unpeeled)
2 tablespoons loose black tea leaves
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk, or to taste
Preparation
Bring water and ginger to a boil in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart saucepan, then remove from heat. Stir in tea and cover. Let stand 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in milks, then pour through a sieve into a large (6-cup) blender, pressing hard on and then discarding solids. Blend until foamy (use caution when blending hot liquids), then pour into mugs and sweeten with more condensed milk if desired.

1 1/4 liters water
1/3 cup firmly packed fresh mint leaves
