I usually have honey and lemon tea-sooths the throat. And then Airwaves (the chewing gum) to clear my nose!

I make the following:

Slice two lemons, finely slice one inch of ginger, crush one garlic clove.

Put in a pot with 4 cups of water.

Bring to the boil and simmer for 20 mins.

Ladle into a cup and add a spoon of honey.

Drink away!

The drink gets stronger with each cup as it sits stewing and then gets reheated.

I find it great. Makes ur body quite warm cos of the garlic so its also great if uv a temp cos it helps to sweat it out of u
