When you are not feeling well, having someone around who is handy in the kitchen beats out a pantry full of canned soup! Your recipes are both wonderfully weird and intriguing. I was instantly on the lookout for the licorice.

Yeah, licorice is a wonder. There's a syrup made from it but it's steeped in along with a turnip and I feel like that may have been pressing my luck....

This is a really interesting collection of recipes, Pat. The hot lemonade reminds me of a preparation, my mother used to give me when I was sick--hot water, lemon, and honey. The cocoa cordial sounds quite delicious, but the barley and licorice mix and the vinegar remedies less so. Thanks for these ideas though. There’s a lot of illness going around here.
