OK- That being said- one of my friends asked me what homeopathic remedy I use for a sore throat. I don't have a lot of money and when I have a sore throat I just don't have the money to go and get a $9.00 throat spray. And you don't get sick on payday EVER...Here is a something that only cost me 1.01 for 2 jars...It takes 1 pretty lemon, a piece of ginger about the size of your thumb and all those annoying packets of honey that get thrown into your drawer in the kitchen. (it took 27 packets to fill my jar) 

It makes 2 jelly jars of product and get this...it tastes good! Put 1 to 2 heaping tablespoons in a cup of very hot water (yes you can put the lemon slice and chunks of ginger in the mug- they are not there to just look pretty) and let the honey dissolve before drinking it or add it to your favorite Chamomile or Sleepy kind of tea.  

First you will need:
a cutting board,
a knife,
a lemon,
a clean jar,
a piece of .10 of a pound ginger
Honey
pair of scissors,
the grocery bag (for trash)

Wash your lemon, and pat it dry.  Take your scissors and cut open several packets of Honey (Make sure it is not Honey Sauce but the real thing) or use bottled honey, and if it is local that is even better because it can act as a protection (it has the potential to boost ones biological defenses against external negative stimuli)against your local pollen. Slice your lemon into no thicker than 1/4 inch thick slices. Now put the lemon slices around the outer rim of the jar, Peel your ginger and slice it thin, put the ginger in the center and finish filling with honey. Take the knife and gently stir the middle and push the lemon slices back down. Put the lid on it and put it into your Fridge for 1 week before using it...it stays good for up to 2 months then you need to make a fresh batch...(Mine does not last that long because I just like to drink it ). Here is your finished product.


Step by step with pictures...(yeah!)

It takes 1 pretty lemon, a piece of ginger about the size of your thumb and all those annoying packets of honey that get thrown into your drawer in the kitchen. (it took 27 packets to fill my jar)

Proof that it only cost me 1.01 for 2 jars of goodness The jars were used jars and the honey was leftover from Chicken dinners cause we always ask them to throw a few extra packets in our bag...Note: Be sure to wash that lemon you don't want to contaminate the honey.

All those annoying packets of honey that get thrown into your drawer in the kitchen!
Take your scissors and cut open several packets of Honey
and put about an inch of honey in the jar.
(Be sure it is not Honey Sauce but the real thing).
 Don't fill the jar yet this is to help hold the lemons in place.
Or you can use Organic bottled honey, and if it is local that is even better because it can act as a protection against your local pollen. (Ahem...it a Deep professor voice: "it has the potential to boost ones biological defenses against external negative stimuli"...lol)

 Slice your lemon into no thicker than 1/4 inch thick slices when you have about an inch and a half of honey in the jar put the lemon slices around the outer rim of the jar. The honey helps hold it in place. (If you want just chop the slices up in bits and you can stir it all up later...it just doesn't look as pretty)

Peel your ginger and slice it thin, put the ginger in the center and finish filling with honey. Take the knife and gently stir the middle and push the lemon slices back down. They have a tendency to pop up at first.

Put the lid on it and put it into your Fridge for 1 week before using it so the flavors all meld together...it stays good for up to 2 months then you need to make a fresh batch...
(Mine does not last that long because I just like to drink it ).
Here is your finished product. Put 1 to 2 heaping tablespoons in a cup of very hot water
and let the honey dissolve before drinking it or add it to your favorite Chamomile or sleepy kind of tea. (yes you can put the lemon slices and chunks of ginger in the mug- they are not there to just look pretty)
