Wasn't there a post here earlier this year about Drunken raisins and arthritis?
I've used the "search" but it doesn't find anything.
Maybe I saw it some place else.

Anyway I was wondering if anyone here uses Drunken Raisins for their arthritis and do they work?
I've found the Drunken Raisin website and also several "make your own drunken raisins" recipes online.
But I'm hoping to hear from members here if they really work.
thanks

I agree!!! lol My best friend makes GLOGG at Christmas...we split the batch and the cost. Good brandy, port wine, etc. cost quite a bit....but if you have some left over from the previous batch...it's not the liquor that will get you...it's the almonds and raisons...LOL

My Mother swears by them. She soaks a box of raisins in Gin for 2 weeks and then eats 9 a day.

My mom thought they helped, but they kept running her sugar levels up like crazy so she quit.

really? So maybe they do work. The recipes I've found say the gin has to made with Juniper berries, not just cheap gin I guess. My SIL is going to whip up a batch.
