Ginger has long been a panacea of possibilities. It has long been considered healthy - good for digestion and a remedy for everything from colds to sea sickness. For those who hunger for love, ginger has been considered an aphrodisiac since the ancients. True? Not true? One thing is certain: the flavor is remarkable and versatile whether crystalized, enjoyed as drops, or served as a tea, on its own or mixed with chamomile tea, lemon, a variety of sugars, and more.
