This is an incredible drink to help boost the immune system and help with cold & flu symptoms. For a full hit of nutrients, use Manuka Honey. I know it is expensive but when needing the boost with your immunity, there is no comparison!

There are many varieties of this recipe, some that used powdered turmeric and ginger to make a paste, which is handy if you don't have fresh ingredients on hand. I personally prefer fresh ingredients but have included both for your convenience.
