A friend of The Green Grocer's recently shared with us a recipe of ginger tea (salabat), with a slight twist. Despite the hot weather, it was such a lovely drink (being quite the tea lover), that we sought permission to share the recipe with you all.
Ginger Lemongrass Tea
1.5 cups water
8-10 pcs. calamansi, juiced
2-3 slices of ginger
1-2 stalks of lemongrass, pounded
coconut sugar to taste
In a small pot, simmer the water with calamansi juice, ginger, lemongrass stalk for 5-10 minutes (the longer, the more potent).
Remove from heat and add coconut sugar to taste. If too potent, add more hot water. Enjoy hot.

Though the recipe calls for it hot, I wonder how it will taste blended with crushed ice? Sounds very refreshing! Will try it this week and let you all know ;)
