it’s hard to stay away from all the cold and flu bugs this time of tear Here is an immune booster to help you stay healthy or fight it if you are already sick or getting sick.
1. Put everything except the lemon juice & apple cider vinegar into a small saucepan:
2. Bring it just to a gentle simmer
3. Let it simmer/steep 10–15 minutes.
4. Turn off heat, strain it.
5. Once it’s warm (not hot), stir in:
• Lemon juice
• Apple cider vinegar
That keeps the vitamin C and enzymes intact.
This is not something you chug like tea 😅
Think of it as a shot or tonic.
Typical use:
• 1–2 teaspoons for sensitive stomachs
• 1 tablespoon if you’re used to spicy things
• Up to 1–2 ounces (small shot glass) once daily when fighting something off
You can:
• Take it straight (brace yourself 🔥)
• OR dilute it in warm water or herbal tea.
How often?
• Preventive: a few times a week
• Feeling run-down / early cold: once daily for 3–5 days
I wouldn’t do it multiple times a day—between the vinegar, garlic, and cayenne it can be hard on digestion.
Start the new year with a Li’l boost.
