Now, since I only have 3 followers this post may be slightly pointless, but I am hoping someone out there in FB land sees it and can find a use for it. I have to share this amazing tonic my hubby and I have been creating since being struck with a vicious cold last week. Brice googled a homeopathic cure for a babies cough, when Harper got sick last week. This recipe was one we found. Now, if you know my husband, like any recipe he had to change it up just a bit to make it his own. I am not kidding you this stuff works! It zaps your cold, at least it did mine, and it really makes you feel good. I drank this all day (literally) on Friday of last week. My cold did come, but not in near of a force as it one usually does. Harper didn't quite take to our "tea" like we did, but he did syringe it down in a few doses. So...are you ready...here goes. Seriously, when you are feeling yucky and snotty, and all that other junk make this! It will make you feel great inside...at least it sure did me!
The Cold Cure
Boil
-6 cups of water
-3-4 juices of lemon (seeds included)
-about 3/4 Cup fresh basil and mint leaves
Boil all of this until it reduces (about 10min or so)
***I love this recipe b/c I seriously can't really mess it up!
Next, strain all of this into a bowl or pitcher. Then add honey. We prefer a good local honey that is thick and dark, but any honey will do.
You can drink it hot or cold.
YUMMY! If you like this then follow my posts...I need more than 3 people. You know what, one of those is my Mom and she doesn't count because I am pretty sure she follows me out of pity!
