Pick a glass jar of any size with a lid. Slice the lemon, scrape the ginger and prepare the honey.

| How to make: Put in the jar half of the spliced lemon, half of the scraped ginger and the honey, and mix well.
In 3-4 hours, the syrup will be ready for use, after the honey pulls the juice out of the citrus fruit and make the syrup more liquid. If you want something thicker, increase the ration between the honey and the fruit (more honey).
We recommend keeping the jar covered and put in cooling. You can add honey now and again to keep it full. It should keep for at least 1-2 months, maybe even more, as honey is a natural perservative.

| It is recommended to take 1-2 spoons of the syrup every few hours to calm the cold symptoms, especially those in the throat like coughing or aches. If it doesn't go down easy, just mix a full spoon in a glass of hot water or tea.
