Prep time 15 min
Total time: 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients

~1L water 1 Lemon (zest and juice) Fresh ginger root (cut into about 10-12 thin slices) 10 Cardamon pods (halved) 4 Cloves Cinnamon stick (broken up) 1tsp Coriander seeds

Method

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.

Special Instructions

The fresh ginger and lemon are the key ingredients for medicinal purposes. You can fudge the others if you don’t have that stuff.
