Garlic and Clove Remedy – A Traditional Grandmother’s Secret


Ingredients

  • 3–4 fresh garlic cloves
  • 4–5 whole cloves (the spice)
  • 1 cup warm water (or warm milk, optional)
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel the garlic cloves and crush them lightly with the flat side of a knife to release their natural oils.
  2. In a small pot, bring the warm water (or milk) to a gentle simmer.
  3. Add the crushed garlic and whole cloves to the pot. Let them steep for 5–10 minutes on low heat.
  4. Strain the mixture into a cup. If desired, stir in the honey to mellow the strong flavor.
  5. Sip the remedy warm, preferably before bedtime or first thing in the morning.

Tip: This traditional remedy is believed to help soothe colds, coughs, and boost immunity — just like grandma used to make!
