Soothing Tea for Sore Throat

My husband woke up this morning with the worst sore throat and a "funky (as my husband calls it) fever."
So I jumped to make a tea that could soothe the throat and kill the bacterial beasts that might be causing it. The key is to treat this at the onset of symptoms!
Firstly, it's important to note that we rarely look at being ill or "under the weather" as a good thing. However, it is a time to celebrate my friends, because it indicates that the body is indeed WORKING!
The immune system is doing exactly what it geared to do in the most perfect way!! So, just help it along with rest, care, and good nutrients.

Here is a nice tea that tastes great and works wonders (and you probably have most of the ingredients in your kitchen!) He is now sore-throat free and has found that he loves this tea, as well. Incidentally, the fever has reduced also!

Ingredients: 4 bags of herbal tea infused with fruit and citrus (I used Red Zinger)
Juice of 1 lemon
1 1/2 tsp of RAW honey (please make sure it is raw and unfiltered)
1/4 tsp of cayenne

Take a sauce pan and boil water (enough for 4-5 cups.) Take the sauce pan off the heat and add the tea bags, and steep for about 8 minutes-or longer if you prefer a stronger taste-with the lid on. Remove the tea bags and stir in the additional ingredients! Enjoy HOT!

The key here is drinking it while it's still pretty hot (not too hot to burn your mouth) but hot enough to help kill the bacteria.

Please enjoy with lots of LOVE!!
