Welcome to Zoyaaz, where we celebrate the art of creating delightful drinks that bring families together. Today, we’re excited to share our Ginger Pear Tea recipe—an aromatic and heartwarming beverage perfect for any cozy gathering. With its sweet pear notes and a gentle kick of ginger, this tea is more than just a drink; it’s an experience that sparks creativity and family bonding.

Ingredients

• 4 cups water
• 2 ripe pears, cored and sliced
• 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, sliced
• 3 black tea bags
• 2 tablespoons honey (or to taste)
• Lemon slices, for garnish
• Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a gentle boil. Add the sliced pears and fresh ginger.
2. Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together, filling your kitchen with a soothing blend of sweet and spicy aromas.
3. Turn off the heat and add the black tea bags. Let them steep for 5 minutes, releasing their rich, deep flavors.
4. Remove the tea bags, pears, and ginger slices from the saucepan. Stir in the honey until fully dissolved, tasting and adjusting the sweetness to your liking.
5. Pour the tea into cups, and garnish with a slice of lemon and a sprig of fresh mint for a refreshing final touch.

Helpful Tips and Variations

• For a caffeine-free alternative, use herbal tea bags like chamomile or rooibos.
• If pears are out of season, try using apples or peaches for a delightful twist.
• Enhance the presentation by serving the tea in clear glass mugs to showcase its beautiful amber hue.
• Add a cinnamon stick to the simmering pot for an extra layer of warmth and spice.

Storage and Substitutions

Store any leftover tea in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Gently reheat before serving.

If fresh ginger is unavailable, 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger can be used; add it directly with the tea bags.

Pairings and Complements

This Ginger Pear Tea pairs beautifully with baked goods like scones, lemon loaf cake, or lightly spiced ginger cookies. For a savory option, enjoy it alongside a cheese platter with mild cheeses and fresh fruits.
