• 4 pieces Cloves
• 5 pieces Black peppercorns
• 4 cups Water

Directions

Step 1

Peel the ginger root and slice it thinly into small pieces.

In a saucepan, add 4 cups of water, the sliced ginger, cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, cloves, and black peppercorns.

Step 3

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes. This allows the spices to release their flavors.

Strain the tea into cups using a fine mesh strainer to remove the spices and ginger pieces.
