1
Boil water to make the ginger tea. The actual temperature of the water doesn't matter as long as it reaches the boiling point. Turn the burner on the stove down to simmer the water.
-
2
Cut off two small pieces of ginger from the chunk of ginger root and place them into the pot with the boiling water.
-
3
Allow the ginger root pieces to simmer in the boiling water for about 15 minutes so the ginger seeps into the water.
-
4
Pour the water through a small strainer into the mug. The strainer removes the larger pieces of ginger root. Ginger root has a bitter taste and while it can be eaten, some people prefer not to eat it.

5
Add honey or your preferred sweetener to the tea, if desired, and stir it well. A sweetener can help mask the bitter taste of the ginger root without altering its effects.
