I invented this recipe as a teen and it seems to work well as relief for cold symptoms. (And it even tastes pretty good).
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon dried or fresh mint
a sprinkle of ground cayenne (optional)
Put all ingredients in the bottom of a mug. Add boiling water and stir.

well, it sounds tasty!
ReplyDeleteIt is, although I should warn people it is slightly spicy even without the cayenne. I based the recipe off mom's hot honey lemon remedy and added the mint and spicy ingredients to clear the sinuses.
