Well, my sweetie and I got that nasty summer cold that's going around. So no flavored vinegars again :( But I did think about what we were doing to combat the nastys. Here is my recipe for a lemon pick me up for those with colds. Its hot in more ways than one.
Hot Lemonade for Colds
1 tbsp Lemon juice
6 oz Boiling water
honey to taste
Cayenne pepper to taste
Put the lemon juice, Cayenne pepper and honey in the bottom of a mug and pour the hot water over it. stir well and drink.
This is not the most delicious thing you have ever tasted but it cuts through nasal congestion and mucus in the throat very well. Please be cautious with the Cayenne if you are not used to hot foods. Use what seems hot to you. A couple of grains might be just right.
