How To Make An Amazing Sore Throat Tea
Apparently, this tea is based on an Korean remedy. It is very easy to make and requires just a few ingredients (see below). Make it now and leave in fridge for when anyone gets sick. Also, if you make it in a nice mason jar, you can give it as a Fall /Thanksgiving gift.
This recipe actually really simple to make – requiring just honey and sliced lemons – but the secret is in leaving it to “work its magic”: Honey is a natural preserving agent and after time the lemons dissolve into the honey to make a fragrant, sweet jelly-like “preserve” that contains the healthy goodness of both.
1) Wash the lemons carefully before use. I would suggest to soak them in a bowl of water in which a cup of apple cider vinegar has been added. Just let them sit in there for 20 minutes, the ACV will clean them. Then rinse off.
3) Pour on honey until lemons are completely covered. If the honey is too solid, you may wish to warm it (place in a pan of warm water) until it liquefies enough. Close the jar.
4) Refrigerate!
5) To make the drink itself, simply use a spoonful in a cup with boiling water.
Tips:
Use the best ingredients you can get. ie. organic lemons (they are not too expensive), good quality raw honey. If your budget can extend to it, buy Manuka. That way, you will get the extra health benefits that Manuka provides. (plus, it tastes yummy).
Stop by Catherine Boley’s site too, where you’ll find helpful hints in the comment sections.
I will continue searching for cold and flu remedies to post up.
Enjoy.
