Ginger

Delightfully Spicy
and Healthful!

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) root is actually a rhizome, a root like underground stem. It has a delicious spicy taste and has long been used as a popular healthful herb. Ginger ale is often used as a soothing beverage. However, much of today's ginger ale only contains sugar and flavors, but no ginger root. Only a few health food brands of ginger ales have real ginger in them. A convenient way to get real ginger is with Triple Leaf Tea's Ginger Tea made with 100% ginger root. You get the maximum flavorful amount of delicious, spicy ginger with Triple Leaf Ginger Tea. Many other ginger teas are made with multiple other herbs and ginger.

Customers tell us that they love the taste of our tea. Sara Solovitch, in an article "Vomiting, no fever means bad food" in the San Jose Mercury News (11/26/97), wrote: "I recently discovered a powerful tea bag from Triple Leaf Tea that uses 100 percent ginger root. It's become our new family favorite; my kids love it with honey. If it is too strong for your child's taste, you can dilute it with a little apple juice." 

Ginger is beneficial in many ways. Anna MacIntosh, PhD and Kathleen German, M.S., N.D., L Ac. in their article: "Soothing Ginger" Great Life Magazine, June 1998, wrote: "In early writings from India, ginger and pepper were classified as cleansing and rejuvenating herbs, suggesting that ginger may be beneficial for many body systems."

Ginger is naturally caffeine-free, making it a good choice of beverage any time of day. It makes a delicious hot tea, and is equally good iced.
