Herbal Tea For Coughs
Licorice root tea coats and soothes an irritated throat, easing the urge to cough during a cold.
What you'll need
- 1 tsp dried licorice root
- 1 cup hot water
- Honey to taste
Steps
- Steep licorice root in hot water for 10 minutes.
- Strain and stir in honey.
- Sip slowly while warm.
Tip: Avoid regular licorice root if you have high blood pressure — ask a doctor first, or look for a deglycyrrhizinated (DGL) version.
