Homemade Hot Toddy with Honey, Lemon & Spice
By Weeks Honey Farm
Grandma's remedy, still undefeated
When a cold hits, skip the store-bought syrup. Raw honey, fresh lemon, and a touch of warmth.
Ingredients
- 1 mug hot water
- 2 tbsp Weeks Raw Honey
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
- Optional: 1 oz whiskey (for adults)
- Optional: 1 cinnamon stick
Stir everything together. Sip slowly. Repeat every 3 hours while symptomatic.
Why raw honey? Studies show raw honey's enzymes can be more effective than OTC cough syrup for adults and kids over 1. Never give honey to infants under 12 months.
