Pro tips

  • In testing, we used this brand of liquid Zinc, because is it pretty much tasteless in the recipe: Eidon Liquid Zinc If you are looking for an organic option, we recommend the Zinc from Global Healing , if using this one, just reduce the serving size to match the recommended dose on the bottle (1 ml).

  • Using local, raw honey or Manuka honey are the best options when it comes to helping with allergies and boosting your immunity.

  • Interested in adding more vegetables to this blend? Add carrot juice for a dose of beta-carotene.

  • Want a little extra spice and heat? Add a dash of cayenne pepper, which has been shown to lower blood pressure!
