Miracle Tea

My new BFF Shar turned me on to this interesting site:  Eating Asia.  I found the article on Miracle Tea so intriguing.  I never know how to take care of myself when I feel a cold coming on, and I just dread, dread, dread it when one does.  The effects last f-o-r-e-v-e-r for me, ending with a wrenched back from too much coughing.

The ingredients for the tea are ginger, turmeric, peppercorns, lemongrass and green tea.  The lemongrass is mostly for flavor and can be omitted, but you must, must include the turmeric.  The writer and his friend drink this tea daily and double up on the intake when they feel a cold coming on.  

Sounds interesting, yah?!
