Lemon Ginger Throat Drops

Ingredients

¾ cup water

¾ cup honey
3 drops Lemon oil

1 drop Ginger oil

1 tablespoon ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) powder

Instructions

Add honey to water. Heat over medium heat in a saucepan until

mixture begins to boil. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of
pan where it will not touch the bottom or side. Continue boiling

until water mixture reaches 300°F on the thermometer, stirring

constantly. Reduce heat immediately and allow mixture to cool
for 5–10 minutes, or until the consistency becomes syrupy. Add

Lemon and Ginger oil, stirring to combine. Dust candy mold with

ascorbic acid powder. Pour honey mixture into molds and allow
to completely cool.

Remove from molds and dust again with ascorbic acid powder to

keep the drops from sticking together once stored.
Store in an airtight container.

Tip

You can find ascorbic acid at your local health food store, or online.
