Gin Soaked Raisins Recipes

HOME REMEDY: DRUNKEN RAISINS FOR PAIN

Steps:

• 1. Place golden raisins in a canning jar and fill with gin up to 1" over the raisins. Cover loosely with a non-metallic cover that will allow evaporation. Stir every day until you have raisins coated with a thick syrup, about one to four weeks depending on surrounding temperature and humidity. Always keep a batch ahead in the pantry. It is VERY important to use a quality gin that states on the bottle it has been distilled with juniper berries or extract.
• 2. This remedy has been used to help reduce inflammation and pain from arthritis, fibromyalgia, diabetic neuropathy, etc. The recommended dosage has always been 9 raisins/day or one spoonful. After you begin to take the soaked raisins, you then may have to wait about 2 weeks for the full effect. But after that, the spoonful must be taken habitually on a daily basis. If you do not feel a reduction in discomfort, try taking 1 spoonful in the morning and 1 at night.

GIN-SOAKED RAISINS (PURPORTED ARTHRITIS REMEDY)

Steps:

• Before you get started, make sure to read the label of your gin to check that it is made from or includes juniper berries. This is critical!
• Put the raisins in a shallow glass container and pour enough gin into it to just cover the raisins.
• Cover the container with cheesecloth and allow to stand until the raisins absorb the gin and the remaining liquid evaporates, about one week.
• Each day, eat NINE of these "drunken" raisins.
• I have read that it might take six weeks for this remedy to work, so be patient.
