HONEY-LEMON GINGER TEA
I visited a coffee shop in Hartford on a cold winter day and ordered their honey lemon ginger tea. It was tart, sweet, full of flavor, and warmed me from head to toe. The proprietor was nice enough to give me a rough description of her recipe. After a few tries at home, I came up with this close version.

COCONUT GINGER TEA WITH LIME, HONEY AND TURMERIC
I love the fair trade teas produced by Zhena's Gypsy Tea, especially her Coconut Chai. Inspired by the perfume of coconut in that tea, I infused shredded coconut and ginger and added a little fresh lime juice, honey and a smidgeon of turmeric. The idea of making a turmeric and honey paste comes from Heidi Swanson's 101cookbooks.com.

Recipe from Glorian ruoka&viini magazine. The recipe calls for loose tea leaves but I don't see why you couldn't use tea bags instead! Adjust the amount of sugar to taste.

LEMON-GINGER ICED TEA
This Arnold Palmer has just a little kick to it because of the ginger. But it's so good! It's not intended to be a syrupy, sweet tea, so don't load it with sugar. Keep the taste of the ginger as the focal point.
