Carmina Found Her Solution Ottogi I'm Stick Ginger Tea



Carmina's experience traveling to California she wanted to drink her Ottogi Ginger Tea yet she was able to pack it being in a glass bottle.

Not everything you purchase in the Philippines carry it in other countries or the cost is quite expensive.

Carmina sometime sleep over Mom Violy's place and she is not the type who drinks Ottogi Ginger Tea.

Finally I was able to find a solution to bring Ottogi I'm Stick Ginger Tea which is also a liquid inside the individual packs.

The only difference from the bottle version there is no sliced ginger inside however the taste is the same just not too sweet.

Ottogi I'm Stick Ginger Tea come in 10 sticks in one box for PHP 186.00 ($3.32) from Ceci Korean Grocery.






Just add boiling water and pour the Ottogi I'm Stick Ginger Tea ready to drink.
