This tangy and refreshing ginger soup is the perfect way to warm up on a cold day. The ginger gives the soup a nice kick, while the orange adds a touch of sweetness. The soup is also very easy to make, and can be ready in under 30 minutes.
I first had this soup at a Chinese restaurant a few years ago, and I've been making it ever since. I love the way the ginger and orange flavors work together, and it's always a hit with my friends and family. I've experimented with different ingredients over the years, but I always come back to this original recipe. It's the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy.
