Herbal Tea: Ginger, Cumin, Coriander Tea 

Ginger, a potent stimulant, relieves phlegm and mucus from the lungs, relieves gas, and encourages sweating and the elimination of wastes through the skin. Cumin synergizes well with ginger, performing most of the same functions; it cleanses the blood also. While ginger and cumin have a heating tendency, coriander is cooling. It provides the cooling balance to both herbs while performing most of the same actions; it is also a diuretic. 

Ingredients:
1/4 tsp roasted cumin seeds 
1/4 tsp roasted coriander seeds 
1/4 tsp grated dried ginger 
2 cup boiling water

Directions:
Warm a teapot by rinsing with hot tap water. 
Place seeds and ginger into the warmed pot and cover with boiling water. 
Steep for 5 minutes, strain, and serve. 
When cooled, add a touch of honey for Kapha types.

Serves 2
