Instructions: The Remedy for Cold

For curing the cold, Chinese people usually drink ginger soup.My mother uses ginger and crystal sugar. She peels the peel off the ginger, crushes it with a knife, then she puts the ginger and a little crystal sugar in boiling water in a pot. She simmers it for half an hour, and waits for the soup to cool a little.
Just drink this three times per day. You?ll feel really warm and it will drive the cold out of your body.

Put one can of Coca Cola in a pan. Squeeze a little lemon and add some ginger. Mix all the ingredients and heat it up. Boil the mixture. Let it cool down and drink it. One can is enough. If you want more you can drink more. This will make you feel better. The cold will go away.
