I always make a ton of lemon, ginger and honey mixture for flu season. It’s great in teas or by itself with some hot water. Packed with immune boosting vitamins, it’s a natural way to fight colds and viruses during the colder weather. I also love using two tablespoons of this to make a cocktail! I get the enjoyment of a drink and some good vitamins! I hope you enjoy it too!
