Sugar or Jaggery - 1 -11/2 tspn
Grated Ginger - 1 tspn

Method

Take the water in a pot and add some Sugar or Jaggery to it. I prefer Jaggery because it gives a more wholesome flavor than refined sugar
Put the water to boil
Once the water starts boiling, add the ginger and the tea in this order
Let it boil for 45 seconds 
Turn of the stove and cover the pot and let the tea steep for 2-3 minutes

Enjoy a steaming cup any time of the day.
