The benefits of making Lemon, Ginger, Honey Tea are secondary to the taste, in my opinion! But because there is so much nutritional goodness in this tea, I like to have it on hand during all seasons of the year.

Stay hydrated and give your immune system a gentle boost with this naturally soothing, anti-inflammatory Honey & Ginger Warm Lemon Water. This tea can help to aid in digestion, improve the appearance of your skin, and help you get back to feeling your best quickly.
Ginger can help prevent blood clotting and reduce cholesterol. This can help fight heart disease, in which blood vessels become clogged and lead to stroke or heart attack.
Lemon juice can provide many health benefits. It is also an excellent source of vitamin C, a water-soluble vitamin that helps heal wounds and repair and maintain bones and teeth.
Honey soothes my throat and we give our kiddos a tsp or 2 of it when they have a cough. And did you know that eating unfiltered, unheated, raw honey produced within your area, (50-mile radius or less) is like receiving a natural anti-allergy shot! There are so many benefits to consuming raw local honey!
Ginger is another amazing food!
This long and knobby rhizome may seem difficult to use at first, but once you get comfortable, it’s just like any other produce item you may normally use.
I typically just use my food processor by you could also use a small grater or knife.
It helps ward off germs, helps lower blood sugar, keeps your mouth healthy, helps with arthritis, body pain, nausea etc! And the bite when you taste it is just so unlike anything else!
Feeling achy? Stuffy? Sore throat? This Honey Lemon Ginger Tea will help.
The heat and the ginger will warm you right up, the steam—aided by the bright lemon and the potent ginger—will help clear those sinuses, and the ginger and the honey will work to soothe that scratchy throat. If you’re feeling old-school, go ahead and add a shot of whiskey to the mix (especially if you’re drinking it right before going to bed) for a sort of medicinal hot toddy.
If you’re really suffering, make a triple batch and keep it in a glass jar to sip, or reheat it as needed. Want a thoughtful-person-of-the-year award? Make a batch for someone else who might be under the weather.
Summertime means my lemon, honey, ginger tea gets amped up a bit!
I was cleaning in my fridge last year when I spotted a full jar of lemon, honey, ginger tea in the back. Usually, I make 2-3 quart jars of this at a time and still had one left.
We had some pineapple/ mango juice sitting next to it and I got an idea! I decided to pour the tea right into the juice container (which was only about 1/4 full of juice). Then I added 2 Tbsp. of Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar and topped it with 2 strawberry hibiscus tea bags, put the cover on, and set it back in the fridge to steep a bit.
OH MY! I pour myself a cup and warm it up in the morning! It is so delightful and tasty and I know that I am getting so many health benefits from just one cup!
