Milk and Honey Cold Remedy

Submitted by CiaoBella

"I swear by this recipe. I make it whenever I feel a head-cold coming on, and I almost always start to feel better right afterwards. Hope this helps someone else, as well."

 

• Ready In: 3mins
• Ingredients: 2
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 8 ounces whole milk or 8 ounces 2% low-fat milk
• 1 1⁄2 tablespoons honey

directions

1. Microwave the milk in a mug until piping hot, or about 1 minute 30 seconds.
2. Stir in the honey completely, so that no honey is left sitting on the bottom and the milk turns a golden color. I use the measuring spoon to stir the honey in the milk.
3. Drink hot.

I had a cold and couldnt sleep a wink last night cause nose blocked and kids waking up than I remembered what my grandmother used to make us had milk n honey, it works a treat FOR me. But my partner takes her longer to get over it with it. But it a relaxation drink.

Yummy! I didn't have a cold, but it was a cold rainy spring morning when I decided to try this out. I did use skim and honey made locally. It was very relaxing and I enjoyed the drink while snuggling on the couch with my dog listening to the rain. Thanks for posting.
