Method
 

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the water, sliced ginger, and cinnamon stick. If you're making a bariatric seed tea recipe, add the cumin, coriander, and fennel seeds now.
  2. Bring the water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 8-10 minutes. This allows the beneficial compounds from the ginger and spices to fully infuse into the water.
  3. Turn off the heat. Place the green tea bag in the saucepan and let it steep for 3-5 minutes. Be careful not to steep it for too long, as green tea can become bitter.
  4. Remove the tea bag and cinnamon stick. Strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve into your favorite mug.
  5. Stir in the fresh lemon juice and your optional sweetener of choice. Sip slowly and enjoy the soothing warmth.

Notes

You can prepare this tea in a large batch and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Enjoy it warm or served over ice. For the banana tea variation, boil a sliced organic banana (with peel) in water for 10 minutes for a caffeine-free evening drink.
