Health Benefits of the Main Ingredients
Ginger: Packed with anti-inflammatory properties, ginger helps soothe your stomach and digestive system. It can ease nausea, reduce bloating, and keep things moving in your digestive tract. Not only that, but ginger is also a powerful immune booster, helping your body fight off seasonal bugs and viruses.
Lemon: Ah, lemon—nature’s detoxing powerhouse. It’s loaded with vitamin C, which supports your immune system and helps your body fight oxidative stress. The acidity of lemon also stimulates bile production, helping to kick-start digestion and cleanse your liver. Plus, lemon’s high antioxidant content helps keep your skin looking fresh and radiant!
Honey: A little drizzle of raw honey in your tea adds just the right amount of sweetness and brings along its own health benefits, like soothing your throat and supporting gut health with its antibacterial properties.
Warm Ginger Lemon Detox Tea Recipe & Instructions
Ingredients:

1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
1 lemon, juiced
1-2 teaspoons raw honey (optional)
2 cups hot water
Instructions:
Prepare the Ginger: Start by peeling the ginger and slicing it into thin rounds. The thinner the slices, the more surface area for the water to extract all those yummy flavors and nutrients.
Boil the Water: Bring your two cups of water to a gentle boil in a saucepan. Once the water is hot, add the ginger slices and reduce the heat to simmer for about 5-7 minutes. The longer you let it steep, the stronger the ginger flavor will be.
Add Lemon & Honey: Once your tea is ready, strain it into your favorite mug (goodbye, ginger chunks!). Then, squeeze in the fresh lemon juice and stir in your honey for a touch of sweetness.
Enjoy: Sip and feel the soothing warmth as it detoxes your body and wakes up your senses. Perfect for your first thing in the morning ritual or as a cozy pick-me-up during the day.
