These DIY Honey and Ginger Cough Lozenges Soothe Sore Throat
These DIY lemon and ginger cough drops are drug-free, but easy to make, slightly sweet, and ginger and honey can help soothe a sore throat just a little bit. Sip a cup of tea or snack on menthol cough drops and cough medicine if you need something stronger.
The whole recipe is on the Tastemade instagram (embedded above and the link below), so click on everything, but you will understand the point just by watching the video – you need a lot of honey, a little fresh grated ginger, and the recipe requires a little mint. extract. Stir everything and let it simmer for a bit, then pour into small coins on a silicone baking mat (or you can use parchment paper) to cool and freeze. When they have hardened, remove them, wrap them individually and squeeze one out when your throat wiggles.
Best of all, the inclusion of ginger means they can soothe an upset stomach, so keep them on hand too. Just store them in an airtight container and they’ll last forever.
