Garlic-lemonade tea

So, once again, my head cold has turned into a sinus infection.  *sigh*

In addition to the neti pot (sinus rinses), I'm drinking this tea (my own recipe adapted from one read in a book)...

Garlic-Lemonade Tea

2 (or more) garlic cloves
Juice of half a lemon
1 Echinacea-Elderberry Tea bag
Enough honey to make it palatable

Thinly slice the garlic and add it to the strainer.  Juice the lemon and pour over the garlic.  Add the tea bag (or loose leaf).  Pour in boiling water.  Steep as long as possible, but serve warm.  Add in enough honey to make it go down.
