– 1 lemon, juiced
– Honey (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions:
1. In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a simmer over medium heat.
2. While the water is heating, peel and slice a 1-inch piece of fresh ginger to release its aromatic flavors.
3. Once the water is simmering, add the sliced ginger to the pot. Allow it to steep for about 5-10 minutes, depending on how strong you prefer the ginger flavor in your tea.
4. While the ginger is infusing into the water, juice a lemon to get the fresh, tangy liquid ready for your tea.

6. Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice into the ginger-infused water. Stir well to mix the flavors together.
