Slice the ginger
Peel the ginger and cut into thin coins or matchsticks so more spice can wake up in the water.

Steep until golden
Bring water and ginger to a gentle simmer. Lower heat and steep 10 to 15 minutes, until the tea smells spicy and looks lightly golden.
03
Sweeten and sip
Strain into mugs. Stir in honey and lemon juice. Add a lemon slice or mint if you like. Sip while warm.
