This old remedy is as useful now as it has always been. For feeling a bit run down and wanting to give your system a boost, then a spoonful of this every morning can help.

Get fresh ginger, garlic and honey, and an empty clean jar.

A handful of cloves, and a good gunch of ginger.

Roughly chop, then blend and add the mixture to the empty jar.

Now add lots of honey.

Give it a good mix and put in the fridge. It will gain potency after a few days, but you can dive in right away for a hit of goodness.
