For weight loss, ginger tea can be taken on its own, or with lemon, cinnamon, turmeric, or nutmeg.
Ginger tea should be made in the following proportion: 1 inch (2 cm) of fresh ginger in 6.8 oz (200 mL) of water or 1 tablespoon of ground ginger for each ¼ gal (1 liter) of water.
Put the ingredients in a pot and boil for about 8 to 10 minutes. Take the pot off the heat, cover it, and wait until it cools. Then strain and drink. Drink ginger tea three times a day for best results
