Hippocras that should keep me drunk for a while ;-)

So, the world´s gone insane-and alcohol is not a solution, but killing off brain cells helps a bit to decrease the gap of stupidity*ggg*, just kidding, of course.

I have a new run of Hippocras/Theriak ready, brewed from:

-Grape
-Apple
-Blackcurrant
-Sloe
-Quince
-wild strawberries
-wild strawberry leaves
-blueberry leaves
-elderflowers
-bramble berries and leaves
-nettle seeds
-ginger
-lesser galangal
-aniseed
-clove
-allspice
-nutmeg
-cinnamon
-angelica root
-mugwort
-sage
-common yarrow
-St. John´s wort
-honey
-incense


It is made after a 17th century Theriak recipe with inspiration by Konrad of Megenberg and Hildegard of Bingen. It has a very invigorating effect;-) and can be used as a medicinal against cough, flu, bad stomach, female complaints, as a digestive, stomach cramps, digestive problems and a mild antidepressive (provided you use it sensibly). Of course: Please remember to judge for yourself when to visit a doctor and when not to! I will not be made responsible for any adverse effects...

Always be cautious when using herbal concoctions, of course and blah, and blah, and blah...;-).

As a medicinal concoction, drink three mugs a day. You can also drink it warm, prepared just about the same as mulled wine.
