Have you tried raw garlic?

I don't generally eat it raw, but I definitely use a lot of it and I have used it as a medicinal herb as well. For one of the worst ear infections of my life I sought out home remedies. One of them was to make garlic "tea", you just boil the cloves and drink it. It was pretty nasty, but it did work and I felt much better.
 
I have heard that garlic has many benefits but I have never eaten it raw. I have heard that older people would eat a clove of garlic a day! I am sure they were going around stinkin' the place up, but at least they were healthy.
 
An ex-colleague once made garlic vodka - he added a couple of bulbs worth of crushed cloves to a bottle of vodka and waited for a couple of months for it to infuse. Man, did he reek when he drank it!
