Herbal Tea Base

Method

Preparing the Herbal Tea Base

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Add Ginger

    Once the water is boiling, add 2 tablespoons of freshly grated ginger root to the saucepan.

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low and let the ginger steep in the boiling water for about 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Chamomile

    After 10 minutes, add 2 tablespoons of dried chamomile flowers to the saucepan and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Flavoring the Tea

  1. 5

    Strain the Tea

    After simmering, strain the tea mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a teapot or heatproof pitcher to remove the ginger and chamomile.

  2. 6

    Add Lemon Juice

    Stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice into the strained tea.

  3. 7

    Sweeten to Taste

    Add 1 tablespoon of honey (or your choice of sweetener) and stir until fully dissolved.

  4. 8

    Serve with Lemon Slices

    Pour the tea into cups and garnish with lemon slices as desired.
