Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

This fan favorite needed a permanent spot on my website!

I’ve been making this tea concentrate for YEARS, after a sweet friend shared her simple method for making brews & elixirs! I had no idea how easy it was to make something like this until someone took the time to show me, so my hope is that you too would be inspired by the simplicity of this cozy recipe and begin making more things homemade!

Why is this my favorite?

  1. Anti-inflammatory
  2. Anti-Bacterial
  3. Immune Boosting
  4. Supports the Respiratory System by breaking up phlegm and congestion.
  5. It’s delicious & easy to make!!

Description

For years I’ve loved the zesty heat that can be found in fresh ginger root. I’ve long added it to fresh juices, soups and smoothies. While ginger root powder can provide similar heat and health benefits, it’s just not the same as the flavor profile that can be found in the FRESH root! My preference is organic ginger root. Look for it on sale and stock up!

Back when my sweet friend taught me her concentrated brewing methods and she shared that ginger root was a favorite and I was also in the midst of an obsession with a local chai tea concentrate that featured a heavy hand of gingery heat, I knew I had to give this idea a try! After playing around with several different combos of ingredients, I found that I loved this simple and easily accessible method best! While fresh ginger root and a cinnamon stick is all you need, some other optional add-ins I love, when I have the ingredients on hand are: star anise (just a star or two) and 1/4c of dried rosehips.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 palm-sized organic ginger root
  • 2 organic cinnamon sticks
  • 2 organic star of anise (optional)
  • 4 cups filtered water
  • 1 cup organic raw local honey

Additional Supplies

  • 1 quart-sized saucepan
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • 1 4-cup glass bowl or measuring cup
  • 1 medium sized fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth
  • 1 quart-sized mason jar or other glass receptable to keep finished concentrate in the fridge.
  • 1 small funnel to more easily transfer brew from a glass bowl into a bottle for easier dispensing.

Instructions

  1. WASH ginger root, to remove any dirt that may be present. Finely shred with cheese grater. I find it’s easiest to toss the whole root into my blender and pulse a few times until it is completely shredded. Palm-sized root should yield 3/4c to 1c ginger pulp.
  2. POUR 4 cups of filtered water into quart sized saucepan. Add shredded ginger root, cinnamon sticks & star anise (if using).
  3. SIMMER on medium heat for 30-40 mins, or until water has reduced by 1/3.
  4. COOL mixture for 10-15 minutes.
  5. PLACE fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth over the top of 4 cup capacity bowl or measuring bowl (I have a 4 cup pyrex measuring cup that works great for this).
  6. POUR ginger tea mixture through strainer and into glass bowl.
  7. COOL mixture for 15 minutes, or until lukewarm (or below 104 degrees).
  8. ADD 1 cup of raw honey to mixture
  9. STIR gently until all honey is incorporated and dissolves into warm tea.
  10. POUR tea mixture into 24-30oz glass receptacle, I like to use repurposed Italian Soda pop top bottles for this; they’re easy to pour from and it’s a great way to reuse this type of bottle. You can also simply use a quart sized mason jar.
  11. KEEPS in the fridge for up to 6 weeks.
  12. ENJOY by pouring 4 oz of brew into mug and topping off mug with hot water. For an extra kick squeeze some fresh lemon into your steaming mug of ginger tea!

Notes

Why I love boosting with Star Anise:

  • Contains anti-fungal & anti-microbial properties
  • A powerful fighter for both viral & bacterial infections
  • Improves dental health
  • Eases nausea & stomach cramps
  • Adds a soft hint of sweet licorice flavor to the concentrate

  • I don’t buy fresh berries often. 1. Berries are on the #dirtydozen list 2. Organic berries are usually really expensive 3. Berries spoil so quickly too 4. Frozen organic berries are typically a much more economical route for our family. However, when organic berries are on sale, I can’t help myself and I always grab a few cartons! I’ve also learned that if I don’t clean and de-stem the strawberries right away, they don’t get eaten as quickly and start to mold, which is when I came up with our favorite method for prepping our berries and keeping them fresh! What you need: 1. Quart sized glass jar with lid 2. Small piece of paper towel to fold into the bottom of the jar as an added absorption layer for moisture 3. Sturdy metal straw Prep Strawberries: 1. Thoroughly wash and rinse - I use Trader Joe’s fruit & vegetable wash, but you can also do a capful of distilled white vinegar in a bowl of water if you don’t have a veggie wash on hand. 2. Gently pat dry, no need to completely dry them, although you can, if you have time, to ensure they last even longer. Just lay them on a towel on your counter for about 30mins. I typically skip this and just gently pat dry and move on to de-stemming. 3. Press straw into tip of strawberry upwards thru center to gently pop the top off. 4. Drop into prepped glass jar. Store glass jar in fridge. Ours last up to two weeks cleaned and stored in the fridge this way🙌🏼! If we don’t end up eating thru them by then, I pour them into a Stasher bag and freeze for future use in smoothies or other recipes! Happy Organic Berry season!! Share if you try this method and how it worked for you😘! #cleanlivingmama #cleanlivinginstyle #cleanbecky #glowingskintips #guthealingfood
  • TODAY marks 8 years since I joined Beautycounter as a Brand Advocate (swipe >to see 2016 me🫠)! When I decided to link arms with this company I had an energetic 3 year old and teeny tiny 6 month old and now they’re 11 and 8 years old!! Ya’ll time has just flown by! As I look back over these past 8 years I’m filled with gratitude for this incredible job that has allowed me to flex and bend around my family’s ever changing needs. THANK YOU for being apart of this journey with me! Whether you shop as a client, have linked arms with me as a consultant on my team, or have simply cheered for me from the sidelines, I’m so very thankful for you! Without you and this incredible clean beauty community, I would not be where I am today! It blows my mind that since April 2016, myself and my team of 60+ amazing women, have gotten almost $3 million worth of clean beauty products into people’s hands! I mean, wow, just wow! If you would have told me April of 2016, as I bounced a fussy babe on my hip, debating if I wanted to link arms as a consultant, because I just really, really wanted to save 25% on my own purchases and it seemed like a fun company to explore, that it would grow to where it is today, I would not have believed a word you said! But here we are and it’s been such a fun journey! While today marks my 8th anniversary with Beautycounter and is really fun news to share, there’s also some other news I’m EXCITED to share with you. Beautycounter was bought back by Founder and CEO, Gregg Renfrew, from the large investment firm that took over ownership in 2021. This is incredible for so many reasons, but first and foremost because it gives us FULL control to carry on business as usual. With all that said, this is a HUGE business shift as all the legal entities get transferred and all ownership shifts to Gregg and team. You may be wondering how this affects you, well Beautycounter needs to take 12 days to re-organize the business so that everything flows smoothly for both you, my amazing clients, and for me, as a Brand Advocate. So if you need anything in the meantime, connect with me! Happy to help! Pic cred @upstreet.photography
  • One of my favorite snacks and easy meal add ons! Even better when the eggs are from my neighbor’s backyard hens! I love a good soft boiled egg, not runny, not hard. It’s tricky to find the perfect balance. My husband taught me this timing trick years ago and I realized the other day I should have shared this with y’all! Yes, I know there are million and one ways to boil eggs. People do them in the instant pot, in the oven, in the air fryer, in a crockpot. You get the idea. There are A LOT of ways to make your eggs. Timing is another whole debate. I’m not here to negate anyone else’s method, just sharing the simple one that works for us😘. - 2 quart saucepan - HOT water (we have an instant hot water spigot at our sink, but even just extra hot water from your faucet will work too). - Gently add eggs to saucepan with a spoon - turn heat to high - set timer for 10minutes - when timer is done. Remove eggs from heat and gently roll into bowl of iced water. Voila! I love to keep mine in a bowl in my fridge for easy access and snacking anytime. One of my favorite snacks is a soft boiled egg sprinkled with everything bagel seasoning🤤!
  • When I first began to really become conscious of the harmful effects of the chemicals in personal care products and environmental toxins all around, I was overwhelmed. Where to even start? My friends and I would joke “whelp I guess, everything gives you cancer these days”. The jokes would help lessen the pressure I felt as a new mom trying to do my best. As I learned more I began to realize that some people go way extreme on their avoidance of EVERYTHING, to each their own. However what I quickly learned is more people than not fall into information overloaded & exhausted apathy and I knew that health had way more to do with finding balance than trying to do it all perfectly. We can only control so much. There are little changes we can make every day that create positive changes and lessen the negative chemical impact and burden on our bodies. We can choose: - healthier household cleaners. Name brands too expensive, start using simple white vinegar, unscented dishsoap and baking soda. - clean beauty; start swapping out your personal care products for ones void of synthetic fragrance, phthalates, PEGs, parabens, etc. - start opening your windows on clear and cool days. - vacuum & dust your home more frequently. - tune into dirty dozen & clean 15 so you can still incorporate organic, but use non-organic when you can too, which helps with cost significantly. Want a complete guide to detoxing your makeup bag and most harmful chemicals to avoid? COMMENT: “💄” below and I’ll send you my tips!
  • Needed this reminder. Maybe you do too. Rest is not idle, it’s not wasteful. Sometimes rest is the most productive thing you can do for your body and soul. “It takes courage to say yes to rest and play in a culture where exhaustion is seen as a status symbol.” - brene brown If we don’t intentionally choose rest, our bodies will choose it for us. One thing I learned early on in my small business journey was that I had to learn the art of resting, not quitting. All around me were people that would go full steam ahead with an idea, a new venture, etc without stopping and then all of a sudden they would just stop because they were just too tired to continue. I knew that if I wanted to be able to sustain this work I was called to, I needed to learn how to rest in the midst of the chaos of non-stop demands. So this is me, still learning, still finding the balance of choosing to rest even when I feel like I have too much on my plate to make that choice. Humans were designed to rest in the midst of hard work. We aren’t machines. Clean living is about finding this life giving balance between what the world screams at us and what our body, mind and soul tell us. Spend more time tuning into the latter versus the former. How do you rest in the midst of the chaos of life?
