Throat Savers Tea
1 inch Ginger Root (Peeled, and sliced)
1 Tblsp Whole Cloves
½ Lemon (Sliced)
2 Tblsp Honey
3 cups Water
Ginger- is a natural anti-inflammatory and is a natural painkiller and throat soother. Ginger has been used for centuries to cure aches, pain, digestion problems, and a host of other ailments.
Cloves- is also a natural anti-inflammatory who’s attributes can help soothe certain respiratory conditions like cold, cough, asthma, bronchitis, sinusitis, and also clears the nasal tract.
Lemon – Is a natural antiseptic that when in hat water helps cut through thick mucus and soothe the throat as well as help your body get rid of toxins.
Honey – is a natural throat soother as well as a good source of natural energy, which is very important especially when you don’t feel well.
Also all of theses ingredients have antioxidant and anti-bacterial properties. That mean it also kills bacteria that could be causing the inflammation or irritation. It doesn’t just mask the symptoms it actual helps fight and prevent. Who knew!!
In a small pot with a lid, ad ginger, cloves, lemon, and water to pot on med-high heat, cover and let boil for at least 15 min. You really want all the oils and nutrients to seep out of the ingredients. ( For my self, I wake up put the tea on, go shower and eat and come back)
Cut the heat off and stir in Honey and immediately strain transfer to your thermos, coffer container, or mug.
If your taking it to go, once strained, add some of the ginger and lemon pieces in as well. If it’s a long show day and you need more help later, you can add more hot water to pieces left in your container.
***Drink water and stay hydrated!!!!! This tea is more like a baste for your throat, not a cure all drink. It is proven to help clear out and soothe the throat but it alone will not cure you of the cause of the discomfort.
