Ingredients

2 small fresh lemons (with the skin or not, cut into large chunks)
½ cup (or ~4-5 inches) fresh ginger (peeled, cut into chunks)
½ cup (or ~20 cloves) fresh garlic cloves (peeled)
½-¾ cup raw honey or enough to fully cover

Instructions

Add all ingredients roughly chopped in a blender, pulsing for a few seconds until everything turns into a paste.
The mixture contains not only the juice but also the fibers from the whole fruit/vegetable which makes it even more beneficial for your gut microbiome.
Prep ingredients: Wash / scrub the lemon very well if you're using the peel. Remove lemon seeds. Roughly chop the lemon (with peel), ginger (peeled), and garlic cloves (peeled).
Blend into a paste: Add the chopped lemon, ginger, and garlic cloves to a food processor or blender with about half of the honey. Pulse until a coarse paste forms. Scrape down the sides, add the remaining honey, and blend or pulse again until you reach a thick, spoonable consistency.
Adjust & transfer: Taste and adjust - add more honey if it’s too strong, or more ginger/garlic if you like it bolder. Transfer the mixture into a clean glass jar and seal.
Rest & store: You can take one teaspoon right away (it's quite strong). But if you're sensitive, let it sit in the refrigerator for 12–24 hours before using to allow the flavors to meld. Store refrigerated.

Notes

How to Use

General support: Take about 1–2 teaspoons per day, between meals (or half an hour before meals ) or in the morning/evening.
Cold season / “I feel something coming on”: Some people use about 1 teaspoon every 3–4 hours for a short period, as tolerated, along with rest, fluids, and appropriate care.
Warm serving: Stir a small spoonful into warm (not hot) water or mild herbal tea. Avoid boiling water to better preserve its benefits. Honestly for me is more pleasant to take it straight (teaspoon) and then follow up with a few sips of aromatic herbal tea.

The benefits of this mixture are best experienced if used consistently until you feel better and a few days after you recover.

Remember what you put into your body is what you get, so use only fresh raw, organic, unpasteurized ingredients. Prior to cutting make sure everything is washed and clean.

Storage

Store in a sealed glass jar in the refrigerator.
Keeps for about 2–3 months when handled with a clean spoon and kept cold. With time it gets milder.
