I don't know exactly how you make ginger tea from fresh ginger. Do you use a garlic press to express it? Raw ginger, like raw garlic is powerful stuff. Ginger and garlic are actually closely related. At $2 or $3 a pound, $1 or so of ginger or garlic can last me a week or two.
I make tea from cutting quarter type slices and then boiling water and dropping it in after it boils and letting it sit for 30 mins, you get Ginger tea then! I dried sucking on the piece and so on but it was too strong for me! It gave me bad die offs and was too strong.


In Sanskrit, tulsi means literally "the incomparable one" and has been revered since ancient times. Tulsi, the holy basil, is said to have grown at the site of Christ’s crucifixion and is associated with St. Basil’s feast.
