Fermented Garlic & Honey

A simple to make winter tonic with literally just garlic and raw honey as the ingredients to make useful winter tonic to go with some elderberry syrup to help fight coughs and sniffles. #garlisandhoney #honeyandgarlic #wintertonic

The perfect one

I took some recently with Elderberry syrup and stopped a cold in it's tracks.

I have a load of garlic I grew so may have a go at this xx

What a lovely problem to have, at least it's something that has shelf longevity. It really is as easy as chucking them together but if you add a few other ingredients it can make fire cider. I haven't done a video on that yet but l did do an article back in the day when l did a blog austinlill.blogspot.com/2017/11/fire-cider.html

Mom usually makes us several quarts for the winter. Stick with local farm fresh ingredients. Those jar burps will take your breath away.

Hey Matt. I purchased the garlic as l don't really have a lot if space to grow it. My neighbours keep bees so l usually trade smoked cheese, jerky etc. Good point about the smell and how it slowly mellows over time.

How do you take it. By the spoonful, in hot water?

[@theoutdoortraditionalist]

A spoonful just as it is. It does mellow out and I'll do a video at some stage making fire cider which is basically a pimped up version of this🙂
