Oxymel is used to boost the immune systems in the cold & flu season of the winter months. Oxymel means "acid and honey" and is indicative of its two main ingredients that are used to make the infusion: honey and apple cider vinegar.
HOW TO USE OXYMEL
You can take oxymel by the spoonful in undiluted form, or as cold tonic or a hot tea. For a cold tonic, add 1 or 2 tablespoons of strained oxymel into a tall glass. Then add a 12 ounce can of chilled seltzer water (plain or flavored) and gently stir. It's a very refreshing summer beverage. One or two glasses per day is recommended. During winter, just brew a cup of your favorite herbal tea. Once the tea cools a bit, add a tablespoon or two of oxymel and stir to blend.
