This amazing ginger tea does just that and more. Ginger is antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and more, as well as a huge digestive aid. So if you are ready to get serious about your health, get to brewing!

To make this tea, first, start out with some ginger root. If you buy organic ginger, you can actually keep the skin on. If you do not, scrape it off with the back of a spoon.

Then, chop it into slices and add it to a pot of water. Into the pot, you can also add the peel of a lemon, orange, or lime, as well as any extra spices like cloves or star anise.

Bring that all to a boil, let it cook for 15 minutes at a simmer, and then strain out the pieces.

Keep this in a jar that you can warm up for several days and stay healthy!
