Slice ginger and garlic thin and wrap them in cheesecloth with a cinnamon stick. The cheesecloth is optional actually. You can just pick the pieces out after steeping or leave them in.
Juice half of a lemon and add it to a mug or glass with honey. Add cheesecloth mixture to mug and cover with 10 ounces steaming water (not quite boiling). Cover tightly and let steep for 8 minutes.
Remove aromatics (or leave them in) and sip slowly.
