Clear Your Lungs and Stop Coughing

Ingredients

1 cup water

1 medium red onion, chopped (natural expectorant and antimicrobial)

1–2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated (anti-inflammatory and immune-supporting)

2–3 cloves garlic, crushed (natural antibiotic and antiviral)

Juice of 1 lemon (vitamin C and antioxidant)

1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper or a small chili (loosens mucus, stimulates circulation)

2 tablespoons raw honey (soothes throat, antimicrobial)

Optional: 1/4 teaspoon turmeric (anti-inflammatory)

Boil & Simmer Base:

In a small saucepan, add water, onion, ginger, garlic, cayenne, and turmeric (if using).

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 20–30 minutes, until reduced by about half.

Strain:

Let cool slightly, then strain the liquid into a clean jar or glass container using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth.

Add Lemon & Honey:

Once warm (not hot), stir in the lemon juice and raw honey.

Mix well until fully combined.

Store:

Keep in a sealed jar in the refrigerator.

Shake well before each use.
