Warm, comforting, anti-viral tea that my mother learned at the feet of Yogi Bhajan in 1970.
Place all ingredients into a 4 quart pot, cover and simmer on low for at least an hour. Try not to let it boil. You may dip into it as early as 20 minutes, but the longer it simmers the better.
Excellent when done in the crock pot, too.
To make with black tea, turn off burner and add a bag or two of good quality darjeeling tea, let steep for 10 minutes or to taste and remove bag.
Ladle the tea into a big mug (through a strainer if need be), add honey, milk (optional), and sip slowly.
Wards off colds, I'm tellin' you. Mom making this for us at night is one of my earliest memories. Major comfort food.
