## Directions
1. Chop fresh ginger into bits.
- Smaller makes a better tea, bigger makes them more fun to snack on later.
- Crushing or juicing it may be a neat way to make the tea extra spicy.
1. Add all ingredients to a pot.
- Want it stronger? Use less water, such as only 3 cups.
1. Bring to a brief boil then let sit on low until ready to consume.
- I use the Steam function on my pressure cooker (3 minutes with Low Pressure).
- It then uses Keep Warm while I go on a walk for about 20 minutes to 2 hours.
1. Serve!
- For maximum benefit, consume the herbs as well. I use a spoon at the end. :)
- Otherwise, if composting the plant matter, filter with a sieve or nut milk bag.

## Notes
I find that it ends up tasting a lot like Tulsi, or Holy Basil.
As with all food and drink, please strive to use organic and/or local ingredients.
I have not experimented with using powdered forms of ginger or cloves. I'd assume to use less of them than the whole forms, such as 1/4 tsp ginger powder and 1/8 tsp clove powder. Please let me know if you try it!
Turmeric and/or black pepper may be good in this recipe. I may try it eventually, but don't typically buy turmeric and have slowed down on using black pepper since it is said to cause the liver to function less efficiently.
