I agree that this is a wonderful beverage at any time, but it's particularly good if you have an upset stomach or headache. I have been making this using minced ginger (or just sliced, if I'm really rushed, but mincing or grating releases more of the heady ginger scent). Also, if you do not have fresh ginger, make this with crystallized ginger - that is a handy kitchen staple. You'll need little, if any, additional sweetener with the crystallized ginger.

My DH made this for me when I had a very upset stomach. It was the only thing I could drink or eat. It saved me! I like green tea (Lipton's) best, tho I drink all kinds of tea. This is good if you're dieting, too.

Made this evening using grated fresh ginger, a packet of orange/spice tea and a little splenda for sweetner. A wonderful cup of tea! So good I had 2 cups. Made my scratchy throat feel better too.

According to info on the internet, the benefits of ginger root are phenomenal — from weight loss, strengthening the function of kidney, bladder, uterus and liver, helping prevent strokes, anti-inflammatory...I never knew what to do with it. Thanks! This tea is superb.

Lennie! You've come through for me again! I came here to find a simple ginger tea recipe (for an upset stomach). As soon as I saw one with your name on it, I printed it, made it and here I sit drinking it! Exactly what I was looking for. The only change I made was substituting honey for the sugar since I use honey in my tea normally. Thank you, Lennie! M&Mers

I've made this twice now, the first time, i took your advice and i did try it this way, it was a little too strong for me, but i'm sure the more ginger the healthier. The second time i made this i had really bad stomach cramps, i used 3/4 tsp. grated ginger and 2-cups boiling water (i like to use a big mug too), with 1 packet of splenda and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and this made my stomach feel so much better, and i was able to get to sleep last night. I'll be making this alot, in fact i'm making a cup right now. Thank you Lennie, i am going to keep trying a little more ginger each time i make this, because i'm sure it's healthier this way.
