What it is
This is a dried herbal infusion made from ginger root. It is designed to be steeped in hot water to create a flavorful beverage. The ginger is typically cut into small pieces, allowing its essence to be easily extracted during steeping. The packaging contains multiple individual servings for convenience. It offers a straightforward way to enjoy the taste and aroma of ginger.

To prepare, place one sachet or a measured amount of the dried ginger into a mug. Pour hot, but not boiling, water over the ginger.
