Ginger And Lemon Tea
Ginger and Lemon tea is a versatile and delicious drink that can be enjoyed hot or cold. Ginger is a well-known remedy for various health conditions, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, it is often used to alleviate nausea and soothe an upset stomach. Lemon, on the other hand, is a rich source of Vitamin C and antioxidants and is renowned for its detoxifying properties. When combined, ginger and lemon create a flavorful and healthy tea that can help to boost the immune system and improve digestion. As someone who values the benefits of this drink, I personally enjoy it on an empty stomach or after a meal to aid with digestion!

1-2 inch piece of ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

You can also blend the ginger and lemon juice together before adding it to the hot water, to get a stronger ginger flavor. Feel free to add turmeric or cinnamon for added flavor and health benefits.
