Herb Tea for Cold Sufferers:
I've taken the liberty of adding fresh ginger to the recipe, for its taste and antibiotic qualities. Relief is fast and the tea tastes very medicinal, but good and soothing.
2 tsp. sage leaves, chopped 3 slices fresh ginger Juice of half a lemon 1 tbsp. wildflower honey dash of cayenne (to induce sweating -- may be omitted if fever is not present)
Place the sage and ginger in a mug and add 10 ounces of boiling water. Cover with a dish for 10 - 15 minutes, before adding honey and lemon juice. The dash of cayenne can be stirred in at the end. Enjoy hot, and if you're using the cayenne, stay bundled to avoid a chill. Cayenne will make you sweat and a chill is the last thing you need. Drink several cups a day during the duration of the acute phase, when you feel really lousy.
