Ginger root

I made a delicious ginger, lemon and honey drink, added fizzy water, and was refreshed with something similar to a homemade ginger ale. I didn’t have any turmeric, but if I had some I would have only added it to the last 5 minutes of simmering. If you don’t like fizzy, just drink it straight, or add water if desired.

Slice about an inch of fresh ginger really thin. Put in a pot and cover with about 1/2 gallon (1 liter) boiling water. Cover and simmer for 1/2 – 1 hour. The more ginger you use the stronger the ginger flavor. Turn off heat and allow to cool.

Add raw local honey to taste, perhaps 1/4 – 1/2 cup (honey has many benefits, including soothing coughs) and store in the refrigerator. When ready to serve, pour into a glass, add the juice of 1/2 fresh lemon. Add some fizzy water if desired. Or, for simplicity, add lemon and fizzy water and keep in a bottle with a tight lid and use throughout the day.

Optional: add cayenne pepper if you can handle the HOT! Cayenne pepper provides many benefits.

Always find raw local honey. Mass produced honey that you buy in a supermarket does not provide the same benefits as local raw honey. Find the best honey available in your area.
