Garlic Syrup

Swallowing a teaspoon of garlic syrup can ease a sore throat or help clear up a cold. Pour a quart of boiling water over a pound of fresh, sliced  garlic. Let the mixture steep in a bowl for 12   hours, then add enough sugar to create a syrupy  consistency. Finally, to improve the taste, add honey and vinegar boiled with caraway and fennel   seeds.
