I use raw honey to make a cold remedy for my kids

While the raw honey is a bit more expensive than the regular honey you would find in the grocery store, I like it much better especially because I am using it for my kids

I live in the Midwest area, and we saw our first snowfall for the Winter season. I was loving the Fall weather, in fact, it was almost 80 degrees last week and now we are getting snow. I guess it was bound to happen as Winter is only a few weeks away. I don’t mind the Winter, I do love seeing the fresh snow on the lawn each year. The kids love it as well, they love building snowmen as well as creating snow angels in the snow. Sledding is also another fun activity that we love to do. The only thing I don’t like about Winter is that my kids always end up getting sick during this time of year. When they get sick, I try to use natural remedies instead of cough medicine. Their favorite is usually the hot toddy that I make every year. If you don’t know, a hot toddy is made from hot water, bourbon, honey, lemon and a cinnamon stick. Of course, I don’t add the bourbon to their drink, but instead I add a bit of apple cider vinegar. My husband usually buys raw honey from a local farmers market and that raw honey is usually the best. It has no preservatives or additives, it comes straight from a beekeeper and right to the market. While the raw honey is a bit more expensive than the regular honey you would find in the grocery store, I like it much better especially because I am using it for my kids. After a couple of days of drinking the hot toddy with the raw honey, the kids always make a full recovery.
