Ginger Tea

When I were chile, my mom always made ginger tea to prevent cold and flu. I found that's very useful and helpful to my helth. So I am willing to share what the benefit is from ginger tea.


Ginger tea is a great way to enjoy both the taste and the health benefits of ginger. Making ginger tea from scratch is really simple and really cheap—cheaper than buying a pack of teabags at the store. The taste of homemade ginger tea is also beyond compare. If you are a fan of ginger, you can’t go wrong with the spicy goodness of fresh ginger root.

The Health Benefits of Ginger
The health benefits of ginger are said to be many—from curing stomach aches to improving circulation to providing extra energy to boosting your immune system. Beyond these, the spiciness of a cup of fresh homemade ginger tea is great for clearing up stuffy sinuses or easing a sore throat. Hot beverages are always great to drink to help soothe a cough as well, and this tea is no exception.

Ginger Tea Recipe
The recipe to make fresh ginger tea couldn’t be easier. Simply buy a ginger root at the store. You can buy as much or as little as you want. Ginger will last for a few weeks out of the refrigerator. Because it is lightweight, even if the cost looks high, it is usually less than a dollar for a piece that will produce several evenings of tea. If you prefer, you can also buy organic ginger at health food stores and at some grocery stores.
