Hi, I just want to know, should i drink ginger tea when its hot or let it cold first and then take it? I read on internet that one should never add honey to warm water cos’ the enzymes and other nutrients in the raw honey can be destroyed. That’s confusing, please guide me whether i add honey to hot water or not and if i wait for the tea to be cold before drink it.

Dear Sheraz,
Many thanks for your comment and your interest to my site. I’m glad to help you in finding the answers to your questions.
First of all, you can drink ginger root tea the way you like it. You may like it hot when you are fighting against the symptoms of a common cold, and in hot summer days you many like it cool. It does not matter at all whether the tea is hot or cooled down. As to adding honey: if you are afraid of losing all therapeutic properties and natural nutrient content of honey, you can add it when your tea is warm (about 40C).
Wishing you to stay healthy and happy for many years!
