My husband and me don't drink coffee or tea at home but when my father in law visits our home, I make tea for him. And he always prefers this ginger cardamom tea. It is a flavorful tea and tastes good. Even a non tea drinker like me enjoys this version of tea!

This is my favorite combination too... I like to add dry ginger (chukku) than proper ginger, it is a totally different flavor... :)
