This gallon of ginger tea is an effective digestive and immune booster.

There are different ways to enjoy this batch:

• add a squeeze of lemon juice to your tea
• add 1-2 cups of ginger tea to your vegetable broth to make an immune boosting soup
• add a few shots of ginger tea to your smoothie

If you just want to make one cup at a time, there are a couple of ways to make a quick cup of ginger tea:

To a cup or two of boiling water...

• add sliced up ginger to the boiling water, boil for 10-15 minutes, then serve. About 4 inches of ginger root is a good start, but it also depends on the potency of that root-- some are spicier than others.

• grate a 4-6 inch piece of ginger root and squeeze the juice from the grating with your hand into the cup(s) and add boiling water. This method will yield the strongest and spiciest cups of ginger tea. If you have a juicer, it's definitely easier than grating.
