Take one standard drinks mug.
Put a generous dessert spoon of honey into it, and fill with boiling water.
Add the juice from a fresh lemon.
Take a piece of fresh ginger, peel it and grate it into the hot water.
(Ginger to taste - we find a piece about the size of the top joint of your thumb is plenty but we like ginger)
This is the base recipe but add half a cap of whisky / brandy if you so desire.
Dead simple to make and remarkably effective
