SINGER'S TEA
This is a great tea to make when you're not feeling just up to par. Its a soothing tea that warms the throat, cuts mucus and stimulates circulation.

1 Fresh ginger root
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/3 cup honey
juice from 1 fresh lemon
1 6-oz can of apple juice concentrate
Chop ginger root in 1/3 inch slice rounds (about 8 to 10 inches of the root). Place in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer for 45 minutes. Add cayenne pepper, honey, lemon juice and appla juice concentrate.
Ginger root can be stored in your freezer until the next time you need it.
Good health to you!
