Ingredients
- Apple Cider Vinegar,
- Honey,
- Ginger,
- and Cayenne…
- plus some water.
- And, so quick to put together, so beneficial,
- I had to share it with you. Pronto!
- Combined, I learned from Maggie, that quartet of pantry ingredients creates a potent remedy to some of the ails of winter: Sore throat, hacking cough, tight congestion.
- Combined, they turn into a curious orange syrup that can cut through the croup.
- And, the taste is really good!
- Like you, we’ve been trying to duck the dreaded cold germs: wash our hands, eat well, get enough sleep, stay warm. Sometimes even the most valiant efforts get foiled.
- I first mixed up a batch for Bill over the holidays, when he caught a cold accompanied by a strangling cough. The Remedy went right to work, acting as both a calming agent and expectorant.
- So, last month, when I felt run down, tight with a tickle in the throat, I shook up a little Remedy. A spoonful or two seemed to break its hold, suppress the devilish tickle.
- Just last night, Bill came home after a long workday. His voice was spent, and he had that dull, woozy feeling you get when the onset of a cold is trying to make its way into your head. He snatched up the little bottle, gave it a vigorous shake, and poured a tablespoonful. “Ahhhh. This is the Good Stuff,” he said.
- I’m not saying it’s a cure-all, or some homeopathic miracle drug. But it did a mighty fine job taking the place of store-bought cough suppressants, expectorants, decongestants…
- Wouldn’t you rather have a dose of spicy honey-cider syrup from a little jar mixed up in the kitchen than any of those bottles lurking in the medicine cabinet?
- I thought so.
- Stay warm. Stay healthy.
- Take good care. And, if need be, take your remedy.
- subheading: MAGGIE’S COUGH REMEDY:
- ¼ teaspoon Cayenne
- ¼ teaspoon Ginger
- 1 Tablespoon Cider Vinegar (an organic one, like Bragg’s, is preferred.)
- 2 Tablespoon Water
- 1 Tablespoon Honey (use a locally produced raw honey, if possible.)
