IMMUNITY BOOSTING WATER RECIPE
You'll need:
- a pitcher or half gallon jar
- 6-7 inch piece of ginger
- 8 C filtered water
- juice of 2 lemons
- 10-12 stevia drops for optional sweetener
Directions: take your jar/pitcher and fill it with approximately 8 C water. Beside the pitcher, juice the lemons with your lemon juicer.
Pour into the pitcher of water.
Place your cheese grater on a tray and finely grate the piece of ginger. Collect into a tea bag or coffee filter and tie off. Add to the lemon water. Pour juices from tray into the pitcher as well.
Add drops of liquid stevia, if desired.
Pour yourself a glass, then put the remaining liquid in the refrigerator to preserve healing qualities. Ensure that both you and your family sips on this throughout the day. Continue doing so for up to 2 weeks, if necessary.
Because the additives in the water loses their healing properties when exposed to oxygen, make only as much as your household can consume in a day.
