Homemade Cough Syrup
A few months ago I got bronchitis and had a seriously sore throat - so one of my friends, who is also a nutritionist, brought me this. It made me feel better almost immediately and it was a serious life saver. Now, whenever a friend or family member is sick I make them a batch and since it's 100% natural, there is no need for buying more chemical cough syrups from the drugstore.

Mix 8 tbsp of honey with 3 tbsp of water Add in thyme, pepper and ginger (add 1.5 tsp of each) Mix everything up until texture is consistent **NOTE: although it may not sound... delicious, I actually very much enjoy the taste. The spicy ginger mixed with the sweet honey tastes lovely. Although you probably won't be chugging this by the gallon, if taste is still very important to you you could try adding a few squeezes of lemon.
