Watch out for your fingers Kev. The way you were holding the ginger while cutting looked like a recipe for disaster. You can’t go milking spider teats without them thumbs ya know.
Ginger tea is great for getting over a cold. I personally grate the ginger root into a paste first. I put the paste and ginger remains into a pot with some water, bring it to a boil then simmer on the stove for 10-15mins. Its is a lot stronger and more pungent then just putting ginger pieces into boiling water for a few minutes. Try it out with some organic none pasteurized honey and a squeeze of lemon. It’ll help u with that cold twice as fast.
Ginger is a phenomenal and powerful herbal medicine. Just some of its effects are: anti-inflammatory and pain reducer, anti-oxidant, digestive system health, anti-nausea, anti-parasitic, anti-ulcer, thermoregulation etc. The preparation method I recommend is; 1st use edge of spoon to scrape off skin (knife removes too much ginger), cut off chunk and grate using a ginger grater with well to catch the juice. Pour the fresh juice (& squeeze the pulp) into a cup of hot water. Voila!
It’s a great tea but you should not lie to people by saying that adding some honey it will make the tea sweeter because the actual taste is quite bad but it’s worth the effort.

technically, yes, but people tend to call anything that they steep a tea.
March 17th, 2009 at 2:00 pm
you’re right, it should be called a tisane. anything without tea leaves is defined as such, but most people don’t use that terminology, unfortunately.
