Tea Tonic
Throughout history, honey has been effective as an analgesic (pain reliever) and perhaps even a healing remedy. Vinegar was always my mother’s favorite antiseptic, as it containing many purifying and therapeutic properties. With this delicious tea, you’ll get the restorative powers of both.
Begin by making a cup of hot tea, preferably decaffeinated. Add one teaspoon of honey and one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. Any honey is good, but health advocates claim that honey made by bees in an individual’s own region is even more beneficial to the body’s system—especially if you deal with seasonal allergies.
This tea is very tasty and is known among the Amish as being helpful with headaches, colds, flu, sore throat, insomnia, and many other ailments.

I ADORE Amish remedies! They are not only very helpfull, but tried and true!
I need to try this, I have never been a hot drink person but have just started drinking hot teas, and I have a cold right now, I think this may do the trick—-will try it tonight…
Mmm…Makes me want a cup.
The Amish version sounds better than my grandma’s remedy: no tea, just a half-and-half mixture of lemon juice and honey, heated. Ugh!
I will have to give the Amish remedy a try. I love tea and honey. The apple cider vinegar will be an interesting twist. I enjoy reading your books. Waiting anxiously for the release of book #2 in the Ada House series.
