Okay, so us physician recommended this rather of prescription cough syrup for relieving the cold signs and symptoms from the ADULTS within our family (he obviously, didn't suggest it as being a remedy). He states the whisky can help you sleep as the honey and lemon soothe your throat. I am confident it really works, however in the finish we actually don't care because we like this warm drink whenever we aren't feeling well. Even sometimes if we are feeling well! UPDATE: Our beloved Dr. Pat died November 19,2010 at age 59 from Melanoma now this recipe wonderful it is good reviews is much more special to the family. We'll miss you forever Pat.
Ingredients Diet
- 2 ounces whiskey (we use Jack Daniels)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 4 ounces water (hot in the tap)
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice (we make use of the stuff within the plastic lemon)
- 1 slice fresh lemon (if we do not have this we do not utilize it) (optional)
A friend swears by fireball (cinnamon) whiskey to get rid of a poor cold. It's effective stuff but for me required the normal hot toddy up a notch! Unsure it truly cures a chilly however it sure causes it to be a irritation. )
My mother accustomed to make these when she was sick having a mind cold or chest cold constantly. She promised because of it also it was her family recipe too. Great one for relief- a guarenteed method to sleep during the night.
What the physician purchased..I made use of Glenfiddich and it was most likely just a little heavy handed around the whisky when you are a great Scottish girl its how my Granda would expect me to get it. Cheers!
