Ginger easily gets 100% rating from me as this is one ingredient that is readily available raw no matter which corner of the world you go. It has innumerable health benefits and makes a lovely brew either on its own or as an additive to many other teas, herbs and ingredients.
I also frequently add a bit of ginger when brewing some other tea for the second time. Where by itself it might have been weak, coupled with ginger it always produces a new and interesting taste.
I completely agree! Although I use dried from my local tea shop. I love adding it to whites and greens (especially Adagio’s ginseng green). I also steep 2.25g per 6oz of water, stick it in the fridge and then serve it over a slice of lemon for a great thirst quencher.
