This is one of my favorite recipes! I love the spicy kick that the ginger gives it. I also like to add a little bit of honey to sweeten it up.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my ginger juice turned out too spicy. I think I added too much ginger. Next time I will use less ginger and see how it turns out.
