Ginger, Lemon & Honey Tea is a bright, soothing infusion that balances gentle heat, citrus freshness, and natural sweetness. Fresh ginger adds a warming spice, lemon brings a clean, tangy lift, and honey smooths everything together with mellow sweetness. When paired with green tea, the result is a light yet comforting drink that’s perfect for cool mornings, relaxing evenings, or whenever you need a calming reset.

Ingredients

• 8 ounces water
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 to 1 tablespoon honey (to taste)
• 1 green tea bag or 1 serving loose green tea

Preparation

1. Heat at least 10 ounces of water to the proper temperature for green tea (just below boiling).
2. While the water heats, place the chopped fresh ginger, lemon juice, and honey into an 8-ounce mug. Stir gently to combine.
3. Add the green tea bag or loose tea to the mug.
4. Pour 8 ounces of the hot water over the mixture and stir.
5. Allow the tea to steep for 2 to 3 minutes.
6. Strain if using loose tea and ginger pieces, then serve warm.

Serving Notes
