Prepare the Clove Infusion: Start by bringing one cup of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add 5-6 whole cloves to the boiling water.
Simmer: Reduce the heat to low and let the cloves simmer in the water for about 10-15 minutes. This allows the beneficial compounds in the cloves to infuse into the water.
Strain: After simmering, remove the saucepan from the heat and strain out the cloves using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth. Discard the cloves and retain the infused liquid.
Optional Additions: For added flavor and additional health benefits, you can stir in a spoonful of honey or squeeze in some fresh lemon juice to taste.
Enjoy: Sip on the clove infusion while it’s still warm and soothing. Drink this remedy three times a day for three consecutive days to experience relief from bronchitis symptoms.
