I buy a jar of local raw honey and add a bulb of peeled garlic cloves. You might need to scoop out about a quarter if the jar. Make sure they get coated in honey. Put lid back on. To stop ferment after about a week put in fridge.

Do you take it every day or only when poorly? Do you eat the garlic or just the honey?

Last year I took a spoonful a day in cold/flu season as a preventative. Some just take it for sore throats as they occur. Garlic can be eaten. It may discolour as it ferments. Romans/Greeks used to do this and it is thought of as the first antibiotic.

How interesting I'll look into this a bit more.
