Great tips. I want to add a couple I picked up in Egypt. Chopped ginger root and cinnamon boiled together with honey added to taste is awesome for congestion and chest colds. Alot of people here take blackseed when sick. Either the oil or made as a tea and most all bakeries used blackseed as garnishes like poppyseeds are used in the US.I found an echinachea and blackseed tea I like when I start feeling ill.

I'm drinking some right now with agave nectar and it's very good! Your blog reminds me of the herbal remedies my mom used on us when we were young. She always had slippery elm on hand for sore throats and golden seal for when we were sick. I don't remember drinking any tea as tasty as the elderberry tea, though! :) I couldn’t find elderberries at my local health store, so I bought elderberry tea for now.

I wonder how it would be with agave nectar instead of honey? Thanks for sharing what you do. I think I am going to make some Elderberry Syrup.
