Got the sniffles? Feeling a bit feverish? Believe in the saying 'A spoonful of honey a day...is good for your health?
Well if you answered yes to any of those questions, this post is for you!
Easy as a Sunday morning this recipe was introduced to me via the wonderful world of Youtube.
Eh-hem...and here goes:
Ingredients:
32 oz. Mason jar
24 oz. of honey
2 lemons sliced
1 cup of blueberries
1 cup of raspberries
1 cup of cranberries
Can I just say...this is SOO easy. Just watch, you'll see. The kids can help you make it too.
1) Clean out your Mason jar, using hot water and soapy suds. You want it to be as fresh as possible. Next begin with the lemon slices. Place on the bottom of the jar and begin to line one layer of lemons on the perimeter of the jar.
2) Crush the blueberries as you drop them in, use only a bit as you will alternate as you continue.
3) Crush the cranberries by hand as well, same idea.
4) Drop the raspberries in.
5) Continue alternating until you have used all the lemons and berries up. You can of course add a bit more if you like.
Once you have added all the fruit to your heart's desire, then add the honey.
6) Pour the honey into the jar, filling all the way up to the top.
7) Put the lid on TIGHT and rinse your jar off.
8) Set it in room temp area, kitchen on counter, table, by the window...what have you.
9) Wait 2 full days and you will get you wonderful, and might I add, tasty Homemade Cough Syrup.
:-)
Ever thought your kids would have another reason to want to be sick? They will be begging for this tastiness. And as soon as they do, send the little butters right to school.
Store in the fridge for up to 20 months. (I'm not kidding. It's only honey.)
