Preparation:
Bring water and ginger to boil, and then let it simmer for 5 minutes on medium heat. Remove from heat, strain, and stir in honey and cayenne.

Use:
Drink at least a cup of this tea each day until you no longer crave cigarettes severely.

Why This Works:
The ginger in the tea will calm the nausea you may feel after you stop smoking, and the cayenne pepper is one of the best ways to stop cravings and desensitize your respiratory system to tobacco. In addition to making the tea tastier, honey contains several essential vitamins and proteins that make it easier to stop smoking.

Though quitting smoking can be stressful, home remedies such as aromatherapy and natural teas can help you fight cravings and unpleasant symptoms. Ultimately, the benefits of not smoking outweigh the withdrawal symptoms, and you can lower your risk for dangerous diseases. As time passes, it will be easier and easier to avoid cigarette cravings.
