It starts, like most good things in my kitchen, with a sniffly nose and someone grumbling from under a quilt on the couch. Usually my husband, Frank, all bundled up like he’s on a polar expedition, swearing he’s “not sick” — while coughing loud enough to shake the spice rack. That’s kinda when I reach for what we like to call our kitchen medicine cabinet — you know, the lemon, the garlic, the “kick-you-in-the-throat” type stuff your grandma made when she didn’t have time to run to CVS.
And let me tell ya, it’s not the only homemade helper I’ve kept tucked away for those under-the-weather days. If you’re the kind who likes to keep your immune system on its toes, you might wanna check out my chukandar juice recipe — it’s earthy, rich, and beet-forward in all the right ways. Or maybe something warm and cozy? Then this lemon ginger cinnamon tea might just hit the spot, especially when you need something soothing without being too sweet. And for a real throwback to old-school kitchen cures, my herbal cordial recipe is like nature’s little hug in a glass.
Now, growing up in Philly, I didn’t exactly run with the Amish crowd — we were more corner-store hoagies than horse-and-buggy — but I’ll tell ya, some of those old home remedies they swear by? They’re gold. And this right here — this wild little tonic Milo calls “Amish amoxicillin”? Oh, it’s the real deal. It’s what folks used before a doctor’s visit was even a thought. The kind of brew that clears your sinuses and maybe even your conscience.
Ok, so, this “amish amoxicillin remedy” isn’t actually an antibiotic in the medical sense — let’s be super clear about that — but it’s got enough natural punch to make you feel like you’re doing something good for your body when your immune system needs a pep talk. It’s loaded with ginger, turmeric, garlic, lemon, cayenne, and yes, a big ol’ splash of apple cider vinegar. It’s part immune boost, part spicy dare.

So yeah, how to make amish amoxicillin recipe? It’s not exactly soup, though some folks do heat it gently. The idea is, you blitz everything together — pineapple, vinegar, onion, and the rest of the flavor crew — and strain it so you’re left with this spicy, zesty juice. Keep it in a jar in the fridge and take a sip like it’s medicine. Which, in some ways, it is. Just don’t expect it to taste like orange soda. Though surprisingly? It ain’t bad.
I give it to Frank with a wink, and sometimes I even drink a little myself when I feel that scratchy throat creeping in. And honestly, it’s the kind of thing that makes you feel like you’re doing something — which is half the battle.

You’ll get about two weeks’ worth out of one batch, and trust me — it’s one of those things that gets better the second day. A little mellower. Still got that zing, though. A reminder from your immune system that it's paying attention.
So if you’re sniffly or just prepping for cold season — maybe skip the pharmacy line and try a sip of this first. Keep in mind though: always loop your doctor in if things get dicey. I’m all for the old ways, but modern medicine has its place too.

Here are some questions folks often ask me…
How do you make Amish antibiotics?
It’s not an antibiotic in the usual sense, but this amish amoxicillin remedy kinda does the trick naturally. Blend stuff like garlic, lemon, onion, ginger, pineapple, and vinegar, strain it, and sip it straight (if you dare). It’s strong, but it’s supposed to be.
How often should I take Amish amoxicillin?
I usually sip a tablespoon or two a couple times a day when I’m feeling off. You don’t want to go overboard though — this stuff is potent and can be rough on the belly if you overdo it.
Do Amish use antibiotics?
Some do, especially if things get serious, but they often try home remedies first. Milo, the fella who shared this recipe, said his family drank this brew before ever heading to a clinic. It’s part of their way of life — keeping things simple, natural, and as close to the earth as possible.
