Natural Cough Syrup

Natureal Cough Syrup
and
Immune Booster
Wow! This is some pungent smelling stuff. The funny thing is that it doesn't taste like it smells. It is a very sweet tasting and delicious syrup.  Last night we even enjoyed it as a salad dressing - yum!


How to make:
Get a clean glass jar with a lid

• Chopped Fresh Ginger
• Chopped Red (or any type) Onion
• Whole peeled Garlic Cloves  (Elephant Garlic is milder.  I use regular)
• Organic Dehydrated Cane Juice (sugar)


Make a parfait by layering the Onion, Ginger, and Garlic then add about 1-2 inches of sugar. Repeat

I am told this concoction will last 6-12 months un-refrigerated. At the end of that time you can compost it and make a new batch next flu season.

The recipe is from Amanda McQuade Crawford - Herbalist.  I am sorry that I was not able to ebed this wonderful video but you may view it at the address below:
