Lately my throat has been bothering me so I got a Luizianne tea bag out and several spearmint leaves. Then boiled it together and let boil for a moment or two. Then I drank some of it. It was really good! The tea's warmth helped my throat and the mint did to it helped cool it all down. Thought I'd share that. :D

Once I read in a book that pine needle tea helped sore throats. I tried it a few times, seemed to help.. But I must have boiled it to long, it sure was strong.

A spoon full of honey helps..

Before all that, try gargling with salt water..

Also we we are sick and have a sore throat, expecially the kids. We eat dill pickles.. Or drink the pickle juice. It seems to help for awhile.. I dont know may be the vinegar in it..
