Title: Ginger Tea
Post by: Ice Cream on April 14, 2013, 01:40:44 PM

We had some at the Thai restaurant and loved it.  I now have a pot boiling with water and ginger slices.  Anyone else tried this?  What are good additions?

I have to admit, I prefer ginger tea from dried hunks of ginger rather than fresh slices, though I will drink that too.  I like it best straight up ginger, but it does go well with citrus (pour hot ginger tea over orange or lemon peel) and/or black peppercorns.
