Lemongrass Ginger Tea

Ingredients

  • 2-3 lemongrass
  • ½"-piece ginger, fresh, washed, chopped into roundels without peeling
  • Honey / jaggery to taste

Method

  1. Bring 4 cups of water to boil in a pot. Add the lemongrass and ginger; boil on high heat. When it comes to boil, reduce heat to low, and let it continue to simmer until the water turns light brown.
  2. Remove the pot from heat and cover it. Allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes.
  3. Strain the liquid, squeezing the lemongrass and ginger pieces to ensure maximum flavour is released. Allow the water to cool completely before storing in the refrigerator.
  4. Add the honey / jaggery to taste. Stir and serve immediately.
