Exact quantities, then the method.
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 to around 80C (check with a thermometer)
- A little honey or a slice of lemon, to taste (optional)
Method
- Boil the kettle and wait for it to drop to around 80C before brewing the ginger green tea; a thermometer will tell you, or a temperature controlled kettle.
- Ginger green bag into the cup, water over it.
- Steep for 2 to 3 minutes, long enough for the ginger to come forward while the green leaf stays soft.
- Take the ginger green bag out gently, without squeezing, and add honey or lemon if you want.
- For a stronger ginger hit, tuck a thin slice of fresh root ginger into the cup alongside the bag while it steeps.
