The previous post did not take, so I resent it.

A good natural ingredient cough mix:

Equal parts of honey

and

cider vinegar or lemon juice.

You can use all three ingredients, but then adjust the quantities to personal taste.

A touch of alcohol (rum, et al) doesn't hurt to add to the glass you are drinking... :-)

'Cider Vinegar' varies widely, I once even bought what was claimed to be it, but it just was apple juice and winger mixed - yuck! The real stuff is brewed to form cider that is then taken to the next stage. See Jimmyt's "a href="http://www.mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=87569">vinegar thread.

Real good stuff still contains the 'mother' (stated on the bottle so they can charge more) which will allow you to brew your own vinegar, usually found in health shops.
