Many people ask me for the recipe for the Ginger tea I serve after the restorative retreat. I'd love to be able to give you the exact measurements, but I do it to taste. Here is what I do:
Chop a handful of fresh organic ginger root (no need to peel) place in a pot and cover with about 12 cups of filtered water. Bring to a rolling boil, cover and let sit for at least an hour. The longer it sits, the more flavorful and hot it will be. Add organic lemon juice, and local honey, to taste. Once the taste is right, I add a pinch of Cayenne Pepper if I want it to be hotter. Be careful not to put too much Cayenne in, the longer the tea sits, the hotter it gets!
Enjoy!
