GINGER TEA
  • Fresh ginger – 80 g
  • Fresh cinnamon pieces- 20 g
  • Water – 8 cups
  • Optional (just before you serve the tea) – 4 to 5 pine nuts, 1 tsp of honey

Preparationginger tea cooking

  1. Clean the ginger well (peel the skin off as well). – I scrubbed it with rough cloth first then used a spoon to scrub off the skin
  2. Rinse the cinnamon in cold water. (You don’t need to cut them into small pieces, mine was already in small pieces.)
  3. Thin slice the ginger.

Cooking

  1. Put the ginger, cinnamon, and water into a pot.
  2. Boil it on medium (or low) heat for about 25-30 minutes.
  3. Sieve the ginger and cinnamon. (Use a white straining cloth if you can, to catch the small dirt from the cinnamon)
  4. Serve it in a tea cup. (You can also add some pine nuts and honey)
