Making this Peppermint Ginger tea is so simple, yet the clean, clear tea has complex flavors and aromas that are perfect for an afternoon reset or to unwind at the end of the day. Enjoy this tea on stressful days, or if your stomach is feeling a little unhappy. There is nothing like a calming cup of tea to help you refocus and get through the rest of your day!

I buy the ginger roots whole at the grocery store and slice them to use fresh, or dry them in my dehydrator. The peppermint is from my kitchen garden, but you can also use dried peppermint, just use a little less and be sure to give it a quick crush before adding to your pot to get the most out of the flavors!
