Description
A warming homemade Ginger Tea made with fresh ginger, lemon, and honey. Fragrant, spicy, and soothing, this simple tea was inspired by a version I first tasted in Morocco.

Notes
In the past I’ve always made something similar with fresh ginger slices in the tea. But in Morocco they always used dry ground ginger (the dry spice). I grew to like it better their way with dry ground ginger. But feel free to experiment! Fresh ginger root, cut into slices, or cut up really small, with both work too.
