Description

Sore Throat Tea! A homemade tea for sore throat- originating from Morocco, with just three ingredients- lemon, ginger and honey. This healthy, soothing tea remedy is so warming and comforting, you’ll want to drink it all winter long!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups boiling water
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger ( or feel free to use fresh-see notes)
  • 12 teaspoons honey
  • squeeze lemon

Instructions

  1. Pour hot water into a mug.
  2. Stir in ginger, honey and a squeeze of lemon.
  3. Adjust honey and lemon to your liking. Sip slowly and repeat as needed.

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.
