Spanish Sore Throat Cure

I went to the kitchen for dinner and Ana immediately noticed that I had a sore throat from the way I talked. After dinner she pulled some kind of old woman's secret cure.

1. Juice one lemon and heat it up. Mix with 2 spoon fulls honey. The concoction is a hot drink that packs a massive punch of sour and sweet.
2. She then put vapor rub all around my neck.
3. Soak cotton with alcohol and wrap around neck with a peace of fabric to keep in place.
4. Then she gave me some tablet which was probably "airborne" and told me to suck on it.
5. She then shoved me off with eucaliptus cough drops.

Still have my alcohol wrap around my neck

She's not letting me go out tonight.

  3. Of course I would of added a little Irish whisky in the mixture. But there is science behind gargling with salt water every 2-4 hours.
