The Cough, Cold & Flu season is upon us. Yikes!

Besides the Lemon Turmeric Ginger Tea that I drink every morning which has helped to prevent these illnesses, it always seems that someone in my family (mainly my husband) gets a cough every year.

This Homemade Cough Syrup has helped him more than anything. Once he has the first cough, I whip up a batch!

It’s so easy to make & you probably have all the ingredients in your pantry.

It’s so much better than anything you buy over the counter or even prescriptions with all the nasty chemicals that they put in them.

    I love this cough remedy recipe – I always keep a batch in the fridge!
    I usually already have all the ingredients on hand, which is an added bonus. I took some last night because my scratchy throat had been bothering me all day, and I felt like it might get me coughing overnight.
    This morning my throat was feeling much improved, so I took more remedy and put extra coconut oil in my morning tea. Wow, that was less than 30 minutes ago, and my throat is even better than when I woke up. 🙂
