When Sunita announced her Think Spice Event this month and when I saw it was ginger this time, quite a few recipes went through my mind. But the honest truth is, I can’t stand the smell of raw ginger. Its ironic, cuz I do like ginger chicken and stuff, but if you tell me that the antidote for nausea is chewing a piece of ginger, then I beg to differ! Raw ginger causes nausea in me. But I love ginger-flavoured tea. Yeah, I know, its tough to ‘digest’ this weird like-dislike circle of mine.
This is not much of a recipe, just a habit of mine that I wanted to share and hopefully, Sunita would accept this as an entry to her event.
To make ginger tea – boil 1/2 cup water and add 1 tsp tea leaves and 2 small pieces of ginger. Boil for a few minutes and add hot milk and sugar to taste. Drink hot!
This is my cup of Ginger Tea that gets me started every day morning. Just add a few pieces of shredded fresh ginger into your tea while its brewing and enjoy the flavour.

Ginger tea is the only thing I could think of for the event as I make it almost everyday.
I kept thinking that I would make something else and send that in and finally ended up doing nothing. 🙂
That is a very nice pic. Are those tea-bags by the side?
Mmm, I love ginger in my masala chai! You can also make a really nice tea without milk or black tea. You just boil fresh ginger with some other spices and some jaggery in water till well flavoured. It's good hot or cold. I have some nice pictures on my blog: http://mangosoup.blogspot.com/2009/08/ginger-tea.html
