Soup has always been a classic go-to when you’re sick with the cold or flu, and this special broth adds an extra oomph of flavour and health.

It’s dead easy, with just garlic, oil, herbs, and spices. The rest of the ingredients are entirely up to your choosing!
2. Citrus Ginger Shake
This dairy-free shake will satisfy your dessert cravings, all while providing your system with vitamin C from the orange and lemon, antioxidants from the ginger, and protein from the tofu and soy milk.
