First prepare the infusion. For this we need 1 teaspoon of dry powdered leaves of eucalyptus (purchased at a pharmacy).

And the same mint (grown in the country).

Herbs pour 0.5 cups of boiling water and give statesa half an hour.

Get a strong mint-eucalyptus infusion. The quantity of sugar to 3 tbsp of infusion. In a suitable container (I - aluminum saucepan), combine the sugar and the infusion, we put on fire, stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Very quickly the syrup to boil and boil rapidly (photo not very good, the lens gets fogged). The main thing - to stir constantly so the syrup was left on the walls, otherwise it will quickly Sacharissa (which I had). When the syrup starts to thicken, add lemon juice (to weight didn't cristalizadores), added ground ginger, again stir thoroughly. Willingness to check on a hard ball when a drop of syrup dripping into cold water, becomes hard, the syrup is ready. If a ball is soft or stick to teeth - cook for another.

Prepare the mold (preferably in advance). I use regular plastic in the form of ice. It is possible (and easier) to use silicone. Thoroughly grease the form of vegetable oil. If there is no form, you just pour a spoon in small portions on a greased sheet of parchment.

When the syrup is ready, remove from the heat and add the honey (this is to taste, I add 0.5 tsp). Positive thing in this recipe, I believe, is that the honey here is not boiled (although I have found a lot of recipes in which the basis of the honey is boiled for 1.5-2 hours). But this step for nursing mothers and children up to 3 years can be skipped, as there is a risk of allergies. For kids and same amount of ginger can be reduced. So, the finished syrup is carefully poured into molds (as I have a lot of sugar left on the walls of the ladle, syrup nearly enough). Allow to cool.

When the candy has completely cooled, can be removed. If this is a problem, the shape of the bottom should be warmed to lower for some seconds in boiling water or hold a few minutes over steam. Then you can gently podawa with a knife to get the candy. With silicone forms these difficulties will not arise. Each candy is wrapped in foil or plastic wrap: you can now carry and use as needed.

For kids you can do (if, of course, forms) these are lollipops on sticks. Candy produces sweet, with a slight hint of lemon and eucalyptus and ginger ostrinkoy. From minor sore throat to help quickly, check for yourself.
