Lemon Ginger Honey Syrup

 

This sweet and spicy syrup is immune boosting, a great cold remedy and digestive aid.

Ginger is anti-inflammatory, warming to the body and can stimulate weak digestion. Lemons are packed with vitamin C to support the immune system and honey has strong anti-bacterial properties. You can mix a few tablespoons with warm water or use it as a “simple syrup” in cocktails.
