Twinings Ginger Green Tea sits somewhere between a gentle brew and a pick-me-up. Treat the green leaf kindly by letting the kettle cool to around 80C, then steep for two to three minutes; that is long enough for the ginger to warm through without the tea going sharp. Good with honey, fine on its own.

You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Twinings Ginger Green Tea
- 200ml freshly boiled water, cooled for about a minute (around 80C)
- A little honey or a slice of lemon, to taste (optional)
Method
- Boil the kettle, then let it stand for about a minute so the water drops to around 80C.
- Pop the bag into your cup and pour the water over.
- Steep for 2 to 3 minutes, long enough for the ginger to come forward while the green leaf stays soft.
- Lift out the bag without squeezing it, add a little honey or a slice of lemon if you like, and enjoy.
- For a stronger ginger hit, tuck a thin slice of fresh root ginger into the cup alongside the bag while it steeps.
