Im with Charlene; how long does it stay good and how to store it? I too have had a non stop cold since the beginning of winter; going for a more natural approach, lol
Made this am. Calls for 1 tsp honey, I put 3 tablespoons. Added lemon slices, too. Also, made 3 jars with Apple Pie Filling and Cinnamon. Boy, is that good! Will make them like that from now on.
The cough syrup if you make for a family member do they store it in the refrigerator or freezer and what or how long does it stay good
A friend of mine made some last year. I tried it and it knocked my cough out over night. I now have a cold that nothing has worked so far and I am going to make up a jar .
What size of Mason Jar? Pint? That is what it looks like.
