Ward off a chill

LEMON AND GINGER-INFUSED HONEY

Makes about 2 cups

Our recipe tester grew up on this sweet-tart,
tummy-warming concoction, which has
a bit of heat from the ginger. She drank it
on cold winter afternoons and at any hint
of a cold. The mixture will keep for about
2 weeks in the fridge.

3 lemons, thinly sliced and seeded
2-inch piece of ginger, sliced
1 1/2 cups honey

1. Put lemons and ginger in 1-quart jar, and
cover with honey. Let sit at least 1 hour.

2. To serve, stir 2 to 3 Tbs. of lemon-ginger
honey into 8 oz. boiling water.
