Okay so the mixture of these three ingredients above is the only solution I know to my cough, sore throat and even catarrh. As odd as it may sound, I am certain that in some parts of the world it is being used for these same purposes. The bacteria fighting characteristic of honey, the purifying characteristic of lemon and the healing characteristic of ginger makes this possible. So here is what you do when you have got any of the above mentioned conditions:
Simply squeeze one lemon into a cup. Peel a ginger root using a peeler or knife and chop into tiny pieces. Then, either you grate the ginger into very tiny pieces using a grater or you crush the ginger by wrapping it in a foil paper and using a wooden rolling pin to pound hard on it (this should work well). You will then add the crushed ginger into the squeezed lemon and add three full tablespoons of honey and mix thoroughly. Now that your syrup is ready, you may take 2 teaspoons of the syrup in the morning and at night (it's always too sweet that I abuse it...don't be like me).
