Ingredients
- ¼ cup honey, or to taste
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 tablespoon finely grated ginger root
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 ½ cups boiling water
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Finely grate fresh ginger root until you have about one tablespoon, and juice one fresh lemon to extract approximately 2-3 tablespoons of juice.
- Add Honey and Spices: In a large heat-safe container or teapot, combine ¼ cup of honey, the freshly grated ginger, and ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Pour Boiling Water: Carefully pour 3 ½ cups of boiling water over the honey, ginger, and cinnamon mixture to allow the ingredients to dissolve and infuse.
- Add Lemon Juice: Stir in the freshly squeezed lemon juice thoroughly into the hot tea mixture to distribute the flavors evenly.
- Steep and Stir: Allow the mixture to steep for about 5 minutes so the ginger and cinnamon fully release their flavors, stirring occasionally.
- Serve Warm: Pour the soother into mugs and enjoy warm. Adjust honey to taste if additional sweetness is desired.
Notes
- Use fresh ginger for the best flavor and maximum health benefits.
- You can adjust the amount of honey depending on your preferred level of sweetness.
- This drink is ideal to soothe sore throats, boost immunity, and promote hydration.
- For a stronger ginger flavor, steep the ginger root longer before adding lemon juice.
- To make it vegan, substitute honey with maple syrup or other plant-based sweeteners.
