Ginger Tea with Red Dates


Ingredients
▢2 cups water
▢15 grams ginger (thinly sliced)
▢15 grams Chinese red dates (halved, optional)
▢Chinese brown/black sugar or honey (to taste)


Instructions
× Add the water to a small pot along with the ginger and dates.
× Cover and bring to a boil.
× Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
× Add the Chinese brown sugar to taste (if using honey, just skip this step––you’ll wait to add the honey later).
× Cover and simmer for another 5 minutes.
× Strain the tea into a mug.
× Let the tea cool to drinkable temperature, but the goal is to drink it while it’s still hot!



Tips & Notes:
If using honey instead of Chinese brown sugar, add it right before you’re ready to drink it. Don’t boil the honey, because cooking honey will eliminate many of its health benefits!
