cookKorean Lemon Honey Tea

I first came across this idea at http://catherineboley.blogspot.co.uk/ but found additional info at http://lightlycrunchy.wordpress.com/ which introduces ginger to the mix. Raw, unpasturised honey is recommended as a base. Follow the instructions and simply store in the fridge, topping up with honey/lemon/ginger as needed.

Honey Ginger Lemon Tea

1/4 to 1/2 of an organic lemon
fresh ginger
honey (raw)
Thinly slice the lemon and peel and thinly slice or mince the ginger (I used between 1-2 tsp of minced ginger, you can use your judgement about how much you’d like). I cut the slices into quarters to help them break down faster in the honey. Arrange the lemons (take out the seeds first) and ginger in layers in a clean, sterile jar and cover with honey. Refrigerate until needed. Use a large tbsp of the mixture in a mug of hot water to make tea.

Or if you just want to make yourself a quick mug of tea, you can use these measurements:

Honey Lemon Ginger Tea

1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
Put ginger in a small bowl and pour 1 cup boiling water over it. Allow it to steep for 5 minutes. Strain into a mug and add in lemon juice and honey. Add more honey, to taste, if needed.
