Oshanasnea Maple
Cough & Cold Syrup
This is a
really nice cough & cold syrup… while some people use
honey and some people use a simple syrup made with sugar,
you simply can’t beat the flavor obtained by combining
Osha and Maple Syrup. This stuff is drinkable…
While the
only musts here are Osha and Maple Syrup, this is the
formula I first started with. I often play around with
it, and can say that either replacing the Usnea with Wild
Cherry Bark (or just adding it to the rest) also tastes
pretty darn good…
Combine,
in equal parts:
~Osha
tincture
~Echinacea
tincture
~Usnea
tincture
Add 1
"squirt" (about 30 drops) of this combined tincture to
each tablespoon of pure Maple Syrup (any grade will do,
but Grade B has the strongest Maple flavor).
This
syrup can be used as needed as a cough and cold remedy,
and is quite delightful in flavor and effect (i.e. your
kids aren’t likely to complain...)
