Great recipe for sore throats and chest colds

Great recipe for sore throats and chest colds

Make sure you have some of this ready...great recipe for sore throats and chest colds makes about 2 cups

2 lemons thoroughly cleaned and sliced
2 piece of ginger about the size of your pointer and middle finger together sliced into coin size pieces Honey (about 1 cup-maybe more)

1. In a clean 12 oz mason jar (2 cup size) distribute lemon slices and ginger.

2. Pour honey over it slowly. This may take a few tries to let the honey sink down and around the lemon and ginger slices. Make sure when the honey has filled in all the voids, there is enough to cover the top of the lemon slices by a smidge.

 3. Close jar and keep refrigerated. The mixture will form sort of a loose honey. Add a spoonful with some hot water and drink as a tea. ( If you have juicy lemons the mixture may turn runny but this is OK! ). Who knew.... Winter sore throat "tea". In a jar, combine lemon slices, organic honey and sliced ginger. Close jar and put it in the fridge, it will form into a "jelly".  

To serve:

 Spoon jelly into mug and pour boiling water over it. Store in fridge 2-3 months. Adults Only - Add shot or two of Whiskey to your mug, good for chest colds.
