Tips To Make The Best Flu Bomb Drink

Follow these tips and tricks for the best possible results on this Flu Bomb Recipe:

  • Make sure to get organic ingredients if possible.
  • Make sure to allow the crushed garlic to stand for 10 minutes before exposing it to heat. This prevents the total loss of its beneficial activities. Heat reduces the anti-oxidant properties and prevents the formation of beneficial chemical compounds.
  • Lemon is also affected by the heat, so it is better to add it to cold water instead of boiling water.
  • On the other hand, ginger is opposite to garlic and lemon. The hot water will actually pull all the anti-oxidant properties from the ginger. Thus, it is better if you steep the ginger first and then add the rest of the ingredients.
