Ginger is the herbal with the strongest claim to a real benefit: easing nausea. It also warms you up, and with no caffeine in it you can drink it at any hour.
Nausea, the strong one
Ginger has good evidence for easing nausea, from travel sickness to general queasiness. A weak, fresh brew is the practical dose. See Wikipedia: ginger and our tea for nausea guide.
Digestion and warmth
Ginger helps move food through the stomach, easing that overfull feeling after a heavy meal, and its natural warmth is comforting when you are cold or run down. See tea for digestion.
Sensible limits
Very strong ginger can irritate the stomach for some, so keep it gentle. It is a comfort and support, not a treatment for a medical condition.
FAQ
Is ginger tea worth drinking? Yes: a warming, caffeine free cup, mostly used for nausea.
Does it help travel sickness? Yes, ginger is well evidenced for it.
How much? A weak cup as needed; go easy if strong ginger bothers your stomach.
