- 1 cup water

- 1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon

Ingredient noteBlack pepper can worsen reflux in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (less than 1/8 teaspoon per serving) is likely tolerated by many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
