Ancient Viagra

It is a common belief green figs (unripe) were commonly eaten by male lovers to increase virility. This ancient Viagra is surely a tribute to the fruit’s strength-giving passionate qualities. A virile recipe given to me by one of friends is fig tea. To make fig tea, take half a pound of dried figs and wash well. Cut up roughly and put into a large size sauce pan along with 6 cups of water. Simmer for 1 hour until the liquid is reduced to thick tea like consentaneity similar to smoothie. Process through a sieve to remove the pulp if desired. Add a little lemon juice if preferred. By the way lemon juice is also an old remedy for the removal of blackheads.
