This tea is sooooo delicious! Not only is the soymilk good for you, but if you use local honey, it will help with your allergies.

I heard that ginger can help prevent hemorrhoids and is also beneficial in many other ways.  Green tea is supposed to be good for your digestion and soy milk is good for symptoms of menopause.  I'll call this one my "midlife wonder drink".
