Ginger Black Tea with Honey and Lime
A slice of ginger and a little honey and lime turn this simple cup of tea into a uniquely refreshing treat, day or night. It has the perfect balance of flavors, producing a wonderful beverage that’s equal parts delicious and soothing.
Tip
- When choosing ginger, look for one that’s nice and hard and doesn’t have any dark blemishes. The skin should be thin. You can remove it by scraping it with the back of a knife or the edge of spoon. I like to use a vegetable peeler.
- For this tea, take the slice of ginger from one of the knobs protruding off the main piece. Peel just what you need and cut a thin slice, about the size of a quarter.
