WARM ORANGE SPICE DRINK FOR COLD & FLU
I created this drink when I felt a bad cold coming on, and wanted a tasty way to keep it at bay. Oranges provide vitamin C, honey soothes sore throats, cinnamon helps relive nausea, clove quells coughs, and ginger root aids in clearing the sinuses. Also a delicious, warming beverage for those chilly winter days.

IRISH WHISKEY & HONEY REMEDY
Cold and Flu season are here. As a child, I used to get sick quite a bit and always seemed to get a nasty cough. My grandmother used to prepare this drink for me, it really helped and tasted so good (since I was a child, she didn't add a full shot of whiskey, but she did add some). The drink worked and by the next day, my cough was better. As an adult, I still prepare this drink when I get a cold. It may not cure you completely, but it will make you feel better and soothe your soul too :)

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs are packed with nutrients that can help boost your immune system and fight off a cold or flu.
- Drink plenty of fluids. Staying hydrated is important for overall health, but it's especially important when you're sick. Fluids help to thin mucus and keep your throat from getting dry and irritated.
- Get plenty of rest. When you're sick, your body needs time to heal. Make sure to get plenty of rest so that your immune system can do its job.
- Avoid alcohol and caffeine. Alcohol and caffeine can dehydrate you and make your symptoms worse.
- See a doctor if your symptoms are severe. If your symptoms are severe or don't improve after a week, see a doctor. You may have a bacterial infection that needs to be treated with antibiotics.
