Natural Cough/Sore Throat Remedy
Wednesday, January 27th, 2010
OK I don’t normally post “medicinal” type recipes, but I came across this one this AM and had to share… My youngest son was coughing today and I totally ran out of cough medicine and didn’t have any on hand. I remember my Mom used to mix up a concoction like this one – only more alcoholic (i.e. Puerto Rican rum instead of all that water), but hey that’s how it was in the 70’s! I tailored this one from a few I found online, and hey – it works! So i decided to blog it so I could keep it on file. 😉
Ingredients:
pinch Cayenne Pepper
pinch Ground Ginger
1/2 Tbs Honey
1/2 Tbs Apple Cider Vinegar
1 Tbs Water
Directions:
Mix all of the above in a glass until well blended. Drink in sips (it won’t taste that bad, but it won’t be yummy either) until done.
It really works to help a sore throat and cough.
Of course if that cough/sore throat is persistent please see a doctor. 😉
