Gin and Sultanas!

Postby Mariacristina » Wed Sep 24, 2014 6:08 pm

I am always intrigued by the lotions and potions and traditional cures that my neighbours tell me about. . . . . . but this is something completely different. Three quarters fill a jar with sultanas (apparently raisins won't do) and top it up with gin. Leave to infuse for a week or two and then eat ten of the sultanas for breakfast every day. I am told it will ease arthritis and has even been known to cure it. I shall try it and report back.

It's the Gin. Does the trick every time.

If ten sultanas don't work I'd be tempted to try another ten with a straight gin for back up :-)
