Ingredients

1 bulb ginger
1 bunch peppermint, fresh
1 liter water
Sugar, or sweetener your choice

Instructions

Peel the ginger tuber, cut into thin slices (the more thin slices, the more surface area, the more active ingredients are released and the stronger the taste) and place in a teapot. Then bring the water to the boil, add the washed and slightly chopped peppermint and simmer for a few minutes, then pour over the ginger slices. Let the tea steep for at least 10 minutes. You can also let it steep for 15-20 minutes. The longer it brews, the stronger it becomes in the taste. Then sweeten with white sugar, cane sugar, rock candy or honey, but it also tastes very good unsweetened.
Tip:
Instead of peppermint, you can also add cinnamon and coriander, or just water and lemon.
