From drinking these teas separately, I have discovered some personal benefits from them. I notice that whenever I have a headache, peppermint tea cures it after a few sips. Peppermint also refreshes my body after a very stressful day. Here's how I make it:
I get a couple of tablespoons of dried peppermint leaves and pour it into my teapot containing two cups of water. I boil and turn off the stove. I let it brew on the warm stove top for about 5-7 minutes before serving. I get a filter and filter the leaves out into a cup. Add a teaspoon of honey and it is ready for my enjoyment.
Ginger roots are great for your digestive system. I love ginger tea. I have found that it cleanses my system and using the restroom is easy and it cures gas too. It's awesome!
I love the spicy taste and combined with a little bit of honey, oh my! It's heavenly!
This is how I make my Ginger root tea: I get a couple of medium size heads and pound in my mini pestle mortar. You can blend it, if you don't have a pestle mortar. I then put it into my tea pot containing a pot of water. Then I boil. I then turn off the stove and let sit for about 5 minutes and then I filter the bark from the tea into my favorite tea cup. I add a tablespoon of honey and stir. Then I take a sip and enjoy!
This the honey I have been using. Mountain ridge 100% Natural honey. I got it from Walmart.
This is my teapot. It's a beautiful kettle by Portobelo which I bought from Ross Stores.
I make a combined Ginger and Peppermint tea. Follow the steps already shared but add both ingredients to the pot of water and boil. It's truly refreshing.
I hope you have enjoyed this post. It gives me so much joy to be able to share things that I love with you.
I hope to see you next time.
With gratitude,
