Sage with milk

With the onset of cold weather, we are increasingly prone to colds, and we do not always want to immediately use serious medications. Our great-grandfathers resorted to the help of nature in the treatment of various diseases. In particular, sage grass was used to treat colds and viral diseases.

Sage is a natural antiseptic, contains vitamins and minerals and has a beneficial effect on the human body. And the substance salvin, which is part of it, is known as a natural antibiotic. In addition, sage drinks have long been used as an expectorant for dry cough. The effectiveness of sage in colds is explained by the presence of essential oils in it, which have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. And in combination with milk, this herbal infusion is truly an ambulance for tracheitis, laryngitis, bronchitis, diseases of the vocal cords and other respiratory diseases.

Cooking sage with milk is not difficult at all. You need to follow some simple instructions and everything will work out.

Take a clean small enameled dish and pour dry sage into it. The enameled container will not allow the product to oxidize and will retain all the useful properties of sage. Boil water and pour it over the grass. Cover the container with sage and let it brew for 25 minutes. Then strain the infusion of sage through a custard strainer and add boiled milk to it. After cooling the drink to a warm state, put honey in it and stir well. In the absence of honey, sugar can be used to give a sweet taste to the drink, but honey is still preferable. It will make tea even more useful and delicious. Also, to relieve sore throats, if desired, you can add a little butter to the finished drink.

It is best to take ready-made tea with sage and milk in a warm form in small portions throughout the day.

Good health!
