Lemongrass and Ginger Tea

A little homemade brew I have been enjoying lately is Lemongrass and Ginger Tea. I have lemongrass growing in my garden (really easy to grow, it appears to thrive on my neglect) and every now and again I go and pick a stem. Its pretty simple to make a yummy tea.

All I do is put a bit of chopped up Lemongrass and a bit of chopped up ginger (not even peeled) in a tea infuser and let it sit in boiled water for about 5 mins. Then I enjoy!

*If you wanted you could put a bit of sweetener in too (although I do not find it necessary). I have put in some homemade stevia extract from time to time which works. 

*Sometimes I also re-use the tea infuser as it will make a couple of cups of tea
