How to Make Lemon Ginger Tea
- Grate 2 tablespoons of fresh ginger root or thinly slice 1/4 cup of fresh ginger root.
- Place the grated/sliced ginger into a heat-safe container (such as a French press or a large heatproof bowl).
- Pour 4 cups of freshly boiled water over the ginger.
- Steep for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator for a stronger, more flavorful tea.
- If using a French press, gently press down on the plunger after steeping.
- Strain the ginger infusion through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a 1-gallon pitcher.
- Add 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons).
- Add your desired sweetener: 1 cup honey or simple syrup (or to taste). Stir well to combine.
- Add cold water to the pitcher to reach the 1-gallon mark.
- Stir gently, taste, and adjust sweetness if needed.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld. Serve over ice and enjoy!
