First, bring the water to a boil. Meanwhile, peel the ginger and slice it into thin slices. Place the ginger and tea bags in a heatproof bowl and pour boiling water over them. Then stir in the honey. Remove the tea bags after 2-5 minutes, depending on the desired strength of the final product. Allow the ginger-tea mixture to cool and store in the refrigerator. Then add the juice of one lemon.
