 It seems every day that I've been out lately I'm running into someone who has a scratchy throat or they've got the sniffles and they're trying to fight a cold And so it reminded me that I've really got to mix up some of my immune Boosting elixir and I'll show you how easy it is. I mix this up and then I have it every day I try to have it in the morning and just kind of sip it through the morning But any time you can get it in is a good thing So first of all you need a jar that will hold about two cups and it needs to have a tight fitting lid Then you need a little bit of honey and this is only if you like a little sweetener in it And I'm using the honey from my bees. I'm gonna put a little bit probably I don't know just to taste maybe a heaping spoonful a little teaspoon full and Then I'm going to add some nice warm water. It doesn't need to be boiling, but it does need to be warm So I'm going to fill this jar up almost to the top and Then I'm going to add the juice of half of a lemon So I've already squeezed the juice from half a lemon So fresh lemon juice is loaded with vitamin C Which is exactly what you need when you're trying to fight a cold So juice from half a lemon and then I'm going to put a little sprinkle of Cayenne pepper and that is really good for your digestion Which is important to be working properly to help you fight off the germs And then I'm going to add a little bit of Juice now I've grated some fresh ginger root and I'm just going to squeeze some juice out of it And if you don't have any ginger root Actually the lemon juice and the cayenne pepper in the water is going to serve you really well but I just like that extra boost of immune power from the ginger and Then all I'm going to do is put the top on get it nice and tight and then just shake it up To blend it really well, and I want my honey to melt so I can see it right at the bottom of the jar And I'll just keep shaking until it melts and then all you need to do is start sipping It's a great way to help you stay healthy.
