Before I start please note that because this recipe uses honey, please don’t give this to children under the age of one. To support immune function throughout cold and flu season children are usually given ½ – 1 teaspoon per day, while adults usually take about 1½ teaspoons – 1 tablespoon. During illness, the frequency of administration increases to every 2-3 hours until the symptoms resolve.

This is easy to make and if you have access to the berries yourself you can make a batch of this for pretty much no cost at all. I made a batch and I am going to keep it for the spring (that’s when we always catch the worst of our colds for some reason. Check it out and do let me know if you make some.
