Introduction

Warm up with this easy, healthy and tasty homemade Ginger Garlic Soup. This soup has been made using fresh ingredients and contains ginger which has a mild warming effect. Garlic gives this soup a delicious fragrance and a distinctive taste. The light soup helps you stay hydrated and may help soothe an irritated throat.

Health Benefits

Ginger is often used to help ease any stomach discomfort and can help soothe an irritated throat. Garlic contains sulphur compounds which have been researched for their health benefits. This creates a warming and easy-to-make soup.

Black pepper, fresh lemon juice and vegetables can be added to this soup to increase the flavour and nutritional value. However, this soup may help relieve any discomfort but cannot cure colds and coughs.
