Homemade ginger tea - how would you count this?

I'm feeling under the weather and my throat is killing me, so I took some ginger root, sliced it up, boiled it in some water, and now I'm drinking the tea, but not eating the ginger.

Now I'm unsure if there is a caloric value there that I should be counting.

Suggestions?

    1/4 cup of ginger root is only 19 calories...so I highly doubt what you have is any lol. I wouldn't really worry about it!
