Why this recipe works

  • Slice the ginger thin (coins, not chunks). More surface area means more of that warming ginger heat in every cup.
  • Add the honey after steeping, not during. Boiling honey dulls its flavor and destroys the delicate aromatics.
  • Fresh ginger beats ground ginger here by a mile — the fresh root gives a bright heat that powder cannot replicate.
