Thyme Aronia Berry Oxymel.. Oxymels have been used as far back as ancient Greece for the treatment of respiratory symptoms such as congested coughs. Oxymels combine herbs, honey & vinegar, they taste delicious & can be mixed with water to drink or added to veggies for flavor. Thyme is warm & drying which helps drive out cold damp mucous in the sinuses & lungs. Thyme is also antitussive (helps stop cough spasms), antibacterial & antifungal. Honey is moistening & antimicrobial. And you can use any berry, they are full of vitamins & nutrients and burst with flavor. You will love the way this tastes, heres the recipe: 1 cup berries mashed, 1/4 cup dried thyme, 1 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/2-3/4 cup honey. Keep in fridge. Shake daily. Ready after 2 weeks. Strain into a bottle. Enjoy! *I found this recipe years ago on the internet and I wish I could credit the herbalist who originally posted this recipe but I cannot find the recipe again. But whoever that great herbalist woman is, Thank You so much for sharing! Because this recipe is one of my absolute favorites. I have always got a bottle of this oxymel in my refrigerator!
