Anyways, a friend suggested a very simple recipe that has been a true gift. It doesn't cure me, but like the queasy-beads dh gave me for Christmas, it definitely takes the edge off.
Bonus: Entirely allergen friendly. Unless you are allergic to ginger root.
Ginger Water:
1 piece of ginger root
Water
This is simply an infusion. Mr Violets is awesome, and peels and dices a whole ginger root for me at a time so we can keep it in the freezer. We take about 1/2-1 tsp and put it in a teaball. Place the teaball in a 32 oz glass water bottle. Fill with filtered water (room temperature or cold) and keep it in the fridge. It's ready to drink after about 24-36 hours. The tea ball/ginger need to be removed after day 3 or it starts to get bitter. You can add honey or sugar, I'm loving it plain. I imagine a bit of lemon or mint would go nicely, too.
I don't know why I never thought of it before! I've made tea, and chilled tea, but it isn't the same. This is a lighter, more refreshing drink. It's just so nice to have something to sip that isn't water!
