Notes

  1. I keep my costs down by buying organic ginger root, honey, and lemons at Costco and Trader Joe's. 
  2. This tea is a miracle cure if you are prone to a sour stomach or indigestion. 
  3. Honey lemon ginger tea is the best home remedy for relieving all your winter woes, such as colds, or coughs, and flu.
  4. Some ginger can have pulp or strings. I like to leave that in, as it is a good source of fiber. If you prefer not to have that, remove it from the tea before drinking, either with a spoon or by passing it through a strainer.
  5. I enjoy one cup a day, usually in the evening. It is simply delicious.
  6. Rubber ice cube trays can be found at the Amazon Link below, usually around $8 for four trays  https://amzn.to/4cifA3u
  7. The electric juicer can be found at the Amazon Link below,  usually around $30. https://amzn.to/49RgORH
