Ginger tea, this ancient and magical beverage, with its unique warmth power, has become an indispensable warm companion in winter. It not only brings warmth to the body, but also effectively eliminates coldness and dampness, allowing the body and mind to find a warm harbor in the cold.
To make a delicious and effective ginger tea, the selection of ingredients is particularly crucial. We carefully select ginger, red dates, Angelica sinensis, and mugwort leaves as the main ingredients, each carrying the mission of warming the spleen and stomach and enhancing physical fitness. Ginger disperses cold with its pungent and warm nature, red dates nourish qi and blood, angelica promotes blood circulation, and mugwort leaves further warm the meridians. The four complement each other and weave together a warm current that warms the body and mind.
Next is the delicate process of brewing tea. Gently put ginger slices, seedless red dates, cut angelica sinensis and patched wormwood leaves into boiling water, simmer slowly over low heat, and let the essence of each medicinal material slowly release into the water. About fifteen to twenty minutes later, the tea gradually turns golden and the ginger aroma fills the air. At this point, according to personal taste, honey or rock sugar can be added in moderation to create the most suitable flavor for oneself.
When the tea soup has a full color and a strong aroma, it is the moment to enjoy. After filtering out the tea residue, a clear and transparent cup of ginger tea is presented before my eyes. A cup of warm ginger tea can be the best companion, whether it’s in the early morning with the first light of dawn or at night with the nightfall. Drinking in the morning can invigorate the mind and inject vitality into the day; Tasting at night can soothe the body and mind, and help you dream repeatedly.
The charm of ginger tea goes far beyond dispelling cold and keeping warm. It can also promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, alleviate digestive discomfort, and be a blessing for those with stomach discomfort. At the same time, ginger tea can improve blood circulation, alleviate joint pain and menstrual pain, and protect your health in all aspects.
On this winter day, why not brew a cup of ginger tea with your own hands, letting this natural gift warm every cell of yours, not only dispelling the cold outside, but also nourishing inner peace and tranquility.
