By: Alisha GargGinger and tulsi have been valued in Ayurveda for centuries for their antibacterial and antiviral properties. Combining them in tea strengthens the immune system naturally. This blend is perfect to fight common monsoon ailments.
All you need are fresh tulsi leaves, sliced ginger, water, and a spoon of honey. These ingredients are easily found in most Indian kitchens. Natural, chemical-free and easy to prepare, this tea makes wellness accessible.
Boil water with ginger slices, add tulsi leaves and simmer for a few minutes. Strain and add honey if you like before drinking. It takes barely 10 minutes to make this comforting drink.
Ginger soothes sore throats and reduces inflammation, while tulsi helps relieve cough and chest congestion. Together, they protect you from throat infections that are common in damp monsoon weather.
Humidity during monsoon often slows digestion and causes bloating. Ginger stimulates digestive enzymes, and tulsi helps calm the stomach. Drinking this tea keeps digestion smooth and the stomach light.
Both ginger and tulsi are full of antioxidants that fight harmful free radicals. This reduces oxidative stress and supports healthier skin and overall immunity. A cup a day can help you feel fresh and protected.
Monsoon humidity can trigger breathing issues or worsen allergies. Tulsi clears mucus from the respiratory tract, while ginger opens nasal passages. Regularly drinking this tea helps you breathe easier.
Instead of caffeine-loaded drinks, this herbal tea refreshes you gently. It helps fight fatigue and keeps your mind alert during cloudy, lazy afternoons. A perfect drink to start your morning or end your day.
When consumed in moderation, ginger-tulsi tea is safe for most age groups. However, pregnant women and those with specific medical conditions should consult a doctor first. Always use fresh, clean ingredients for best results.
You can add lemon juice for extra Vitamin C, a pinch of black pepper for warmth, or cardamom for more flavour. Adjust the taste as you like and make it your daily monsoon wellness ritual.
