Put water in a pot.
Bring to a hearty boil.
Put ingredients in a pot. (If you put in the lemon juice first it won’t spit at you so much when you dump the other stuff in.)
Bring back to boil, then simmer the brew.
Wait until it reduces by about half (~40-60 mins).
Put some of the brew in a mug.
Add honey to taste.
Feel better.
