Ginger tea with lemon stimulates the digestive tract, removes toxins from the body, affects the performance and health of the digestive system, restores appetite, reduces bloating, helps with allergies, stimulates circulation, strengthens the immune system and restores balance to the body.

The changing weather causes development of many diseases, especially colds.

Fortunately, there are simple, natural ways to prevent colds as well as to improve our health.  One such ritual is drinking a cup of the powerful and popular  Ayurvedic tea –a mix of  lemon and ginger.

Some  ancient  Ayurvedic texts advise drinking several cups of this tea a day. Despite that, we won’t  give you the same advice because the amount of drinking  depends on one’s needs. Start off your day   trying  this drink and let it grow into a very healthy habit.

This tea’s strong flavors will boost your energy and stimulate circulation. Lemon has extraordinary effects on the stimulation of the salivary glands and assists in the health of the intestines.

Method of preparation:

• Grate a large piece of ginger and squeeze its juice into a cup of tea (about 1 teaspoon of squeezed juice) using your fingers.
• Pour hot water over the ginger juice and let it stand still for 2-3 minutes
• Then add the juice of half a lemon
• Add a teaspoon of honey, stir and drink it slowly in small sips

If you suffer from allergies, respiratory tract congestion, runny nose or sinus issues then we suggest the following procedure:

• Slice or grate the ginger in a pot filled with water, add the lemon juice and boil.
• After they are boiled, cover the bowl and let it stand for 5 minutes.
• Strain the mixture, and then sweeten it with honey.
• Sip the tea slowly.
