hi I'm Susan Brown welcome to my kitchen
today we're going to talk about my
favorite beverage of choice which is
ginger tea ginger is a root that has
been known for 5000 years it first
appeared in ancient texts of Ayurvedic
medicine in India and in fact ginger
probably originated in India although
it's spread over the entire world it has
such medicinal qualities that has been
recognized all over as such a healing
food it is a great antioxidant it's a
great anti-inflammatory it helps with
arthritis pain it helps to reduce
inflammation and it's also been shown
even to help defend against ovarian
cancer that it actually has some
capability to bring death to ovarian
cancer cells a very very fascinating
route a delicious tea that's great for
the winter warms up a lot really helps
digestion ginger is also known to
prevent nausea so it's good for so many
things
ginger tea my favorite alkalizing
beverage it's also very alkalizing very
mineral rich so here's what we do really
simple you get some nice plump ginger
you want a juicy ginger nice and fresh
if you can get it you wash it off and
then dry it with a paper towel we've got
this ginger all prepared and you take
about what would be a tablespoon of
ginger for every cup of tea you want to
make so in this case I'm thinking of
making three cups of tea I might take a
piece of ginger save this size and then
what we do you can you can slice the
ginger in little pieces or you can also
grate it just simply grate it up what
we've done here is we've graded three
tablespoons of ginger so it's all ready
to go very nice fresh aromatic ginger
real simple you just take this ginger
and then you transfer it into a pot this
is a saucepan that we have here so we
have this grated ginger roughly three
tablespoons because I'm thinking three
cups of teeth we put this in a saucepan
and then we take our boiling water and
put it right in the saucepan
now there's many ways to make ginger tea
but this is really my favorite so we
take the boiling water I pre measured
roughly three cups you put the boiling
water right with the ginger and then
what we do is we turn the burner on and
let it steep I might watch a second to
make sure it brings it to a little bit
of a boil but we do I generally let it
steep maybe for 10 minutes we cover it
up turn it to a low temperature and let
it steep for 10 minutes so you'll notice
that the house begins to have a
wonderful aroma of ginger we let the
steep for maybe 10-15 minutes doesn't
need to boil too hard and then we're
ready to have ginger tea so now the
ginger has been cooking very gently for
10 or 15 minutes you can smell a lovely
aroma we take the ginger tea and we
strain it you'd like to have nice clear
ginger tea and not too many pieces of
ginger so we strain it and then you see
it's a lovely color we put it into it in
this case I'm going to put it into a cup
and what because I have just kind of
getting over a cold I'm very I really
like the effect of honey so I put maybe
a teaspoon of honey in here and I also
like to use lemon you don't need to use
lemon but if you have that feeling that
lemon would be really good for you I oh
I'm really the original do lesson
accomplished more so I do lemon just
like I was taught to do in in South
America you just squeeze it with a
little fork put a little lemon in there
and then we're going to have a very
tasty lemon ginger tea a tea that will
help reduce inflammation help to

[@vaan1520]

Make this three or four times a week and been having it for over six months. Definitely feel better. Bowels, breathing and generally feeling better than I used to. God bless KZbin!

[@TheGoodfella2012]

Ginger is such a wonderful and powerful food! I wish more people were aware of it's benefits. It's held in very high regard in Ayurveda.

[@alexismurshed6334]

I also let the tea cool and put it into a glass pitcher and refrigerate. I usually do this for the summer and it's really refreshing on a hot summer day. It's become a hobby of mine and I started growing them in a container on my balcony! I love ginger!

[@DrSusanBrown]

Lovely!

[@nymeria6463]

Thank you so much! I had food poisoning a few days ago but the nausea is really killing me. I made myself a cup of ginger tea and my nausea almost disappeared completely. Definitely gonna drink this regularly now.😁

I happened to stumble upon ginger on the store, had NO idea what it was for or how to deal with it, found awesome ways to use it but THIS made me happy, my throat has been aching for weeks, ive been sick for so long, this is a lifesaver! Thank you so much!

[@everydayjoe649]

I cut my ginger root up in the size of a quarter about 10 pcs. I then place in a coffee filter and run thru my coffee maker. This is quick and works perfectly! I yield about 4-6 cups.

[@BB-cs1je]

Great idea!

[@cassiepitchford5488]

I have been drinking Ginger tea for years now. But i have never peeled it, i also don’t slice it but i grind it. I went to India in December and discovered Turmeric tea. So i grind turmeric root and let it sit in heated almond milk. I add nutmeg powder and cinnamon powder. Let everything sit for 5 minutes. I can really recommend it!

[@lizziesangi1602]

The skin of the ginger root has excellent drawing properties. Peel the skin off the ginger root and place it over the wound. Can be covered with gauze and skin tape. Also, "lightly" rub the sliced end of a ginger root over a wound, you will see little hairs start to come up immediately. The more you rub the ginger root over the wound, the longer the hairs will grow until you actually have a little brush. This is great for keeping wounds or an open wound clean. If necessary, slice off the used end and start over. Only the very tips of the hairs need be used. It's amazing to watch!

[@gustavodominguez6247]

I, for one, happen to appreciate a little arthritis and inflammation in my life, not to mention a lovely susceptibility to upper respiratory infections. Different strokes.

[@mihai000000]

im guessing it has to do with the fact that making tea is such a basic skill that the video seems redundant.... You just grate ginger and add boiling water. Who would have guessed ? almost like u do the same thing with literally all other teas

I was looking for a simple recipe for ginger tea and I stumbled upon this video! Thank you! I’m going to make it to help me get over this cold.

Dear friend, maybe put a little honey in it and try to take a lot of buffered vitamin C powder like our alkalini-C And use a good source of quercetin. Both can be found on alkalineforlife.com oh yes, don’t forget your chicken soup. Be better soon.

For months now I've been using ginger tea to brew my coffee. Very warming and soothing in the morning.

[@tictacmantips1]

I peel the ginger chop it up boil for 3min put in cup with all ginger pieces drink the tea then eat all the softened bits of ginger ,then I eat raw garlic wait 1or 2hrs and I feel amazing while running

[@toobier]

You can skip steeping and let the ginger sit in the nearly boiling water for 5 minutes covered tightly or in a thermos… less killing of enzymes.

[@deborahweimer873]

This makes it look so labor intensive! Just slice the ginger, put in a cup and pour hot water over it. No need to grate, etc. Unless you are using organic ginger, it should be peeled. It is easiest to peel with a spoon rather than a knife. If you do choose to grate, use a small porcelain grater made just for ginger. Ginger is very stringy and if you grate with a regular grater, it will be nothing but strings and most of the ginger stays on the grater! The porcelain graters do not have holes, rather bumps that don't catch the ginger.

[@calicodragonfly]

Thank you for info about the ginger grater!

[@annaharnish6922]

I prepare ginger tea from fresh ginger, is really good and beneficial for the body, however I do slice roots with peeler.the rest of the receipt is same. Really great taste!

[@barnabascollins6389]

I like to optimize my food and drinks. In this case I would potentize the ginger tea by adding fresh turmeric powder, pepper and coconut oil. The last two ingredients enhance the absorption of the curcumenoids in turmeric and I suspect the coconut oil would also enhance the absorption of the constituents in ginger.

I am little confused to why it’s called “tea” when there’s no tea bag or loose tea leaves used in the boiling pot while steeping? Making the same technique with 3 tea bags for 3 cups will be another way of making ginger tea. To make it British style tea, liquid can be half milk, half water, and adding crushed 3 cardamom pods while steeping will be aromatic. But when overcoming sickness, the video method is great, keeping it clear fluid and mild. Thank you for sharing the many goodness of ginger.
