Article: To help fight illness, try a shot of ginger and other spices

I grate 3 teaspoons of ginger and add a cup of hot water.

I let it sit for 5-10 minutes, then I strain and drink it.

I like it unsweetened but many add some honey to taste.

I KNEW it had to be good for something! smileys/wink.gif

 
REC: Homemade cough syrup

Homemade Cough Medicine Recipe #56268
This is a home remedy for that horrible cough that you just can't get rid of, and best of all: you probably already have all of the ingredients!
by Daphne2002
4-8 doses
5 min 5 min prep
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons water

Mix ingredients.
Take by the teaspoon as often as needed for cough.
Do not give to infants under 12 months due to the honey (though I doubt you could get them to take it anyway!).
