Ginger Tea






Winter is approaching faster then we all intended.  It's the perfect time to light a soy-based candle, cuddle up in an IKEA throw blanket and put yourself first. Let me just start with, what doesn't ginger do for you? Ginger is one of my fav super foods. Feeling nauseous, getting sick, or looking to kill Ovarian Cancer cells, then this is for you! 


-Wash organic Ginger throughly. 

-Peel and cut into small pieces, (about 10 thin slices) 

-Boil Ginger in a small saucepan for about 15-20 minutes

-Squeeze some lemon into the saucepan. (It's always good to use a small strainer to make sure the seeds aren't an added to your tea.)

-Grab a soup ladle and put your tea into a mug.

-Add a teaspoon of raw, all natural honey, if you like it a little sweeter, add a tablespoon. Honey is a great alternative to sugar and offers a lot of benefits.



It's very important to make sure your foods are organic, and all natural. Though expensive, organic foods are grown with natural fertilizers, insects and weeds are controlled using natural methods and they contain no GMOs. Shopping for honey is also crucial. You must to make sure it reads "au naturale". Lately, I've been coming across articles on how honey on the market contains additives and preservatives, that you mind as well just indulge in sugar. Not cool.





Stay warm!!
