Boost your inmune system with Lemongrass ginger drink
When I feel like I am going to get a cold and I need a boost to my inmune system, this is the drink I always prepare. Ginger may soothe a sore throat and suppress a cough, settle an upset stomach, clear sinus, chest congestion, and reduce nausea. The effects are immediate, and it won’t make you drowsy.
This herbal tea has a strong ability to calm you and make you relaxed, that’s why it is famously served in tropical spa before and after treatment. You can drink it cold or warm.
