Pepper - Ginger Juice

This is what I normally drink whenever I'm down with cold and related illness like headache, sore throat etc... This is prepared with pepper powder, cumin seeds, cinnamon powder, honey and ginger. I'm sure, you would definitely feel better within an hour of taking this drink. This is suitable for adults. I'm not recommending this for kids, because they would feel it very hot as we are using pepper & ginger.
