Hot Lemonade (also a cold remedy)

From a
very old
cook book
"""""""""""""
.
Make the same as cold Lemonade,
using boiling hot Water in place of cold Water.
.
In case of a severe cold,
drink warm as possible
just before retiring.

Cough Surup

Mix at a 50/50 rate:
``````````````````
` Apple Cider Vinegar and Honey.

`
This is very slow to mix in, but low-temperature warming helps.

`
Take by the Tablespoonful, as needed.

Onion Cough Syrup

By:
Ella Denbrook
(home made)
`
Take One Large, Strong Onion...
Cut it in 1/2...
Put a few shallow cuts in the flat side of the Onion.
Put some Sugar over the open, flat surface of the Onion.
Lay the Onion, flat side down, on a saucer or small plate.
Set saucer with Onion on top of stove...
(or warming plate)
at a very, very low heat.
`
Don't rush it!
`
After Onion has started to warm up...
try squeezing the juice from the Onion.
`
Come back every 10 or 15 minutes ...
& squeeze more juice from the Onion,
by pressing down on it with a fork.
`
When you feel that you have enough Onion Juice,
try to squeeze out a little more.
`
While Onion Juice is still warm,
mix in enough Sugar,
to make the Onion Juice syrupy.
`
Maybe only 1 or 2 spoons full...
and it will calm a cough.
`
It worked for me.
