I have an update for you re: making the Chike hot.

DO. NOT. DO.

The first two sips were hot, creamy deliciousness. Then - WTF?! It thickened into something satan would serve for tea! I choked down the third sip in a state of pure horror. LOL

DO NOT DO!!

Oh no!!!

Omg that was too funny! What is Chike? Sure would like to know. Thanks so much.

It is the most delicious protein shake I've ever had - Chike protein iced coffee. Unless heated. Then it's pure hell.

Ugh - sorry you're still feeling bleah. Have you tried making ginger tea? Dead easy, really good, and very soothing. (And not stinky like garlic lol)

Recipe:

4 cups water

2-3 inch piece of fresh ginger root, peeled and cut into 4 pieces

1 lemon, quartered

agave or preferred sweetener, to taste

Into a pot:

Pour the water and ginger pieces into a pot. Squeeze the lemon quarters into the mixture and then throw them into the pot too.

Boil/simmer for 15 minutes, covered.

Strain liquid through a strainer into a jug or tea pot.

Add agave or preferred sweetener, to taste.

Drink up and feel better!

great ideas - do you think powdered ginger would work instead of fresh?  Maybe I could strain it through a coffee filter?  I usually keep some in the freezer but am out at the moment.  I am going to try it!
