GREAT GRANDMA'S HOT HONEY LEMON DRINK



Great Grandma's Hot Honey Lemon Drink image

Another blast from my past that my kids still enjoy! My German Grandma used to make this for us if we had a cold or just needed to warm up on a cold night. I now make it for my kids and they enjoy it a lot. Please note that children under 1 year are not supposed to have honey. Enjoy!

WARM LEMON, HONEY, AND GINGER SOOTHER



Warm Lemon, Honey, and Ginger Soother image

This tangy infusion was inspired by a combination of Indian, Egyptian, and Costa Rican wisdom for soothing the common cold. Make a pot in the morning when you are not feeling well and drink throughout the day, reheating by the mugful as needed. My husband and I keep these ingredients on hand throughout the winter just because we like it. For children, add a splash of orange juice to cool it down.
