I love my Chai but I especially enjoy it on a cold day! It is my favorite pick-me up drink and gives me a quick boost of energy. I love my tea with various spices but there is so much freshness and aroma to the ginger tea.
Benefits of Ginger:
- Ginger aids digestion, improves circulation, boosts the immune system and reduces inflammation which is helpful for people suffering from arthritis.
- Ginger offers antioxidant support, and some research has also shown that ginger can help fight cancer cells.
Ginger is readily available and has a long shelf life. It is one of my must-have ingredients in the refrigerator!
Here is how I make it:
Bring 3/4th cup of water to boil in a small pot.
Add 1 teabag (I love Tetley classic black tea).
Add 1tsp of peeled and grated fresh ginger.
Bring it to boil and simmer for 2 mins.
Add 1/4th cup of skim or low fat milk.
Bring it to boil once more.
Filter using a strainer.
You can add sugar or honey for desired sweetness!
Enjoy HOT!
