Stress in the past week has left me a bit weak in the immunities it seems. Starting to get that scratchy throat and that sinus congestion that can only signify the future joy of kleenex consumption and cold meds. Usually when I get the tell-tale signs, I start flushing out my system with tons of water and airborne...and completely abstain from coffee (!!!) and alcohol (ish) until it all passes. Oh, and I grab the makings for my favorite cold remedy, which is similar to a honey-lemon "tea."
1 Wedge of Lemon
1 Tbsp. Honey
3 Cloves
1.5 oz. Whiskey (optional)
Boiling Water
Jab the 3 cloves into the skin of the lemon and put in a mug. Add the honey and whiskey (if using) and boiling water in that order. Drink up!
Best kind of medicine.
