Ingredients:

1-inch piece of fresh ginger, sliced
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
2 cups water
A splash of lemon juice (optional)
Directions:
Start by bringing 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan or kettle.
Once boiling, reduce the heat and add the sliced ginger and whole cloves. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
After simmering, place the Lipton tea bag into the saucepan with the ginger and cloves. Let it steep for 3-4 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea.
Remove the tea bag, ginger, and cloves from the pot.
Add honey to sweeten the tea if desired. Stir well to dissolve.
If you like a citrusy kick, add a splash of lemon juice to finish.
Pour the tea into your favorite mug and enjoy!
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Serve the tea hot, garnished with a slice of lemon or a cinnamon stick for an extra touch of spice.
Storage: While it’s best enjoyed fresh, you can store any leftover tea in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Reheat on the stove or in the microwave when ready to drink.
Tip: If you're making a larger batch, you can increase the number of ingredients proportionally, but make sure to adjust steeping times for a perfect infusion.
Variations:
Add Sweeteners: Experiment with other natural sweeteners like agave syrup, maple syrup, or stevia instead of honey for different flavor profiles.
Herbal Twist: You can substitute the Lipton tea bag with an herbal tea variety like chamomile for a calming effect.
Spicy Kick: For an extra spicy kick, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or some black pepper to the tea.
Coconut Milk: If you prefer a creamier texture, substitute regular milk or cream with coconut milk for a tropical twist.
