I SWEAR by this tea for many things – especially for energizing, and to ease sickness. So easy to make too. I always carry around a packet of ground ginger with me ready to make some!!

I haven’t brewed it on its own yet but I have so far successfully added it to lavender tisane and to lemongrass-ginger-apple-teabag concoction and both times it provided a very light citrus bite to the brew.

Ginger easily gets 100% rating from me as this is one ingredient that is readily available raw no matter which corner of the world you go. It has innumerable health benefits and makes a lovely brew either on its own or as an additive to many other teas, herbs and ingredients.

I also frequently add a bit of ginger when brewing some other tea for the second time. Where by itself it might have been weak, coupled with ginger it always produces a new and interesting taste.

1.5g/8oz water. Used this to flavor my matcha this morning. Check out my Matcha Kaze from Den’s Tea tasting note to see how I did it.:)
