Hello all! 
I wanted to start this thread for all of us to share our favorite home remedies to various ailments of all types. Feel free to post yours.
It never seens to fail that when the weather starts to change every single autumn, that I seem to catch a sore throat and cold. So here is a recipe for a toddy that may help cut the pain of a sore throat.
JDCNow's Sore Throat Toddy
Get you several lemons from the grocery store, you'll need about 2 lemons per half-cup serving. Cut the lemons in quarters, ans squeeze the juice into your cup (take out the seeds, if you like). (Note >> I like to use real fruits, not the bottled juices from concentrate.)
Get a bag of soft peppermint candy (not the hard kind, but SOFT). you'll need 2 soft peppermints. Just throw them into the lemon juice. They will dissolve on their own. Add about 1 to 1-and-a-half tablespoons of honey to taste. I personally don't drink, but those of you who do may replace the honey with about 1 shot glass worth of your favorite alcoholic beverage, (please enjoy responsibly). You can drink it either chilled with a light amount of ice, or heat it in the microwave for 15 seconds/until warm.
Enjoy temporary relief from store throat pain.
