Warm Healthy Drink for Sick Season
Health Tip: It's sicky season and chances are you have a sick child in your midst or an adult. I have a great soothing drink for a cough, bronchitis or virus.
In a pot bring to boil, Silk Coconut Milk (45% daily allowance for calcium) + the rich milk solids in a can of coconut milk,
add in cardamon about 1/4-1/2 tsp depending how much milk you add,
add a dash of nutmeg and a few dashes of cinnamon.
Good amount of HONEY, RAW is best or less Agave. Honey in its raw state has a lot of medicinal qualities.( But do NOT add sugar which surpresses the immune system)
Simmer for a few minutes and let it cool down some and serve warm.
Cardamon is excellent as anti-inflammatory for a sore throat, the coconut solids contain antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal properties, the cinnamon is a wonder spice too, but don't add too much. The nutmeg is more for flavor, but it has benefits also in Ayurvedic Medicine. When you have a cold or congestion cut out all dairy products, including caffeine and simple sugars which decrease your immune system. You can make this without the canned coconut, but using it does add extra health benefits and it makes this soothing drink taste just like a drinkable Custard Pie! Enjoy! The kids love it and so do I :)
