Lemongrass and Sugar Ginger Tea

Why people make this tea

There is a particular irony to summer in many cities: the heat outside is sweltering, but step into any office, restaurant, or metro carriage and you’re hit by blasting cold air. This constant movement between extremes — hot and cold, sweating and chilling — is one of the most common triggers for what Chinese medicine calls “wind-cold”: headache, stiff neck, aching lower back and knees, and general muscle tightness that feels impossible to shake. Nourilo’s lemongrass and ginger tea is designed for exactly this pattern. Lemongrass disperses wind and opens the channels; ginger warms the surface and breaks up stagnation; together they create a drink that is fragrant, approachable, and noticeably warming.
