Notes

• Everyone should know how to make a classic ginger tea.

• Good for all doshas but can be a little spicy for pittas. If pitta, it is okay to have this in the fall-early spring months. Use in moderation in late spring and summer.

• Ginger is termed as "universal medicine" in Ayurveda. It is great for digestion, coughs, colds, flus, improving lymphatic flow, nausea, motion sickness, circulatory sluggishness, migraines, and more!
