Let’s get cooking today and talk about one of my favorite things! GINGERRRRRRR. Ginger is a spice that has been used in cooking for centuries. It has a distinct, slightly spicy flavor that can enhance the flavor of many dishes.
In addition to its culinary uses, ginger also has a number of health benefits. Looking to add some ginger to your diet for better health?

1. Morning Detox Tea: Morning is the most important part of the day, and what you do (or don't do) in the morning can set the tone for the rest of your day. If you're looking for a way to start your day on the right foot, try making a cup of detox ginger tea.
Made with fresh ginger, lemon, and honey, this tea is not only delicious but also packed with health benefits. Ginger is a well-known digestive aid that can help to soothe an upset stomach and relieve nausea.
Lemon is high in vitamin C, which is essential for boosting immunity and fighting off infection. Honey has antimicrobial properties and can help to speed up healing.
Combined, these ingredients make a powerful morning detox tea that can help you start your day feeling refreshed and energized.

Ginger water is easy to make at home by adding a few slices of ginger to a pitcher or infusing water with ginger by boiling it in a pot with a few slices of ginger.
Ginger water can be enjoyed hot or cold and can be flavored with other ingredients such as lemon or mint.
Add freshly grated ginger to a pitcher of water and let it infuse for a few hours before enjoying. You can also add a slice of lemon or lime for extra flavor.
