My new Cocktail

Ever since we came home from Christmas with my family, everyone except Ra has been struggling with fighting off a cold.  I have had a clogged ear for days now.  K keeps getting congested and Andy's exhausted and wants to sleep all the time.  

I searched online for a remedy that would help me and Kendall with our congestion.  I came across this one and thankfully had all the supplies.  I must warn you - it's NASTY, but it WORKED!  My ear was completely clogged and less than 10 minutes after I took it, it cleared right up!  IT worked better than Sudafed or DayQuil so I suffer through it.  

Here's the recipe:
1/4 c. lemon juice
1/4 c. apple cider vinegar
2-3 T organic honey
1/4-1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/4-1/2 tsp. ground ginger

Mix lemon juice and AC vinegar in pot till gently simmering.  Add honey, pepper and ginger.  Store in jar and keep in cool, dark place.  Adults take 1-2 T a day.  It's better warm so I heat it first.  I must warn you - it makes me shiver when I take it, but it has worked so far...better than anything else I've tried.  No, I haven't tortured Kendall with this nasty cocktail.  She'd hate me for it and spit it everywhere!


I found the recipe on the blog listed on the picture, but when I went to link it to this post to give credit, the blog didn't work.
