Can i drink ginger tea to alleviate my dry cough?

It's worth a try: Google also herbal meds for cough. If you have persistent cough, go see your dr to be checked for asthma, bronchitis etc. Take care!

Seems OK.: If you feel it works, by all means. Ginger is known to be a mild anti-nauseant as well.
