Directions:
Be sure gin is made from or includes juniper berries. This is critical!
Put raisins in a shallow glass container and pour enough gin to just cover the raisins.

Each day eat 9 of these "drunken" raisins.
May take up to six weeks for this remedy to work. Be patient.

Personal Notes:
Paul Harvey described this in the 1990s as a home remedy for arthritis. As with any home remedy, consult your doctor and use common sense.
If all else fails, drink the remainder of the gin in a martini.
