tea or gargle salt water
Any warm drink helps. For immediate relief gargle with warm salt water.
hot tea with lemon sugar or sweet and low to taste or theraflu
You could try a cup of chicken soup, or tea with a teaspoon of honey and a bit of lemon. Hope this helps
If it is a sore throat, not a stingy throat, try my family's favourite holiday/feel-better drink:1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup orange juice
1 cup apple juice
1 cup red cranberry juice
1 cup water
1 large tea bag
1/3 cup sugar
4 whole cloves
2 cinnamon sticks
Mix everything together in a microwave safe pitcher and microwave for 10 minutes on high. Remove the tea bag and enjoy. The cinnamon and clove start to flavor it more the longer they steep.
Tea / honey / lemon
a warm tea made with slippery elm and a touch of honey.

An irritating condition of the throat may range from the harmless to the potentially serious.Symptoms: In case of acute sore throat, the patient complains burning and dryness in the throat followed by chills, fever, and some hoarseness or laryngitis. The lymph glands along the sides of the neck may become swollen and tender. The back of the throat may become very red and even covered with a greyish-white membrane. The patient may find difficulty in swallowing, especially during the acute stage. There may also be postnasal discharge if the irritation has spread to the nasal passages. The patient with sore throat, caused by 鈥?Streptoccal鈥?germs suffers from high fever and sharp pain with swelling.Causes: Sore throat is mainly caused by bacteria or a viral infection.

He should take orange juice diluted with warm water every two or three hours from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. during this period. The bowels should be cleansed daily with warm water enema. This should be done twice daily in more serious cases. A wet pack should be applied to the throat at two-hourly intervals during the day, and also one at night. The procedure is to wring out some linen material in cold water, wrap two or three times round the effected part, and cover with some flanner. The throat may be gargled several times with warm water mixed with a little salt. A hot Epsom-salt bath, taken daily during this period, will be highly beneficial.When the more severe symptoms subside, the patient may adopt an all-fruit diet for three or four further days, taking three meals a day of juicy fruits such as orange, apple, pineapple, and papaya at five-hourly intervals. Thereafter he may gradually adopt a well-balanced diet, with emphasis on seeds, nuts and grains, raw vegetables and fresh fruits. The daily dry friction and deep breathing and other exercises should form part of the daily health regimen.Home Remedies: Certain home remedies have been found to be beneficial in the treatment of sore throat.

The herb belleric myrobian (bahera) is another valuable remedy for sore throat. A mixture of the pulp of the fruit, salt, long pepper (pipli) and honey should be administered in the treatment of this condition. The fried fruit, roasted after covering it with wheat flour, is also a popular remedy for sore throat.Betel leaves (pan-ka-patta) have proved beneficial in the treatment of this disease. The leaves should be applied locally for obtaining relief. The fruit of the betel tree, mixed with honey, can also be taken beneficially to relieve irritating throat cough.The bishop鈥檚 weed (ajowan) is valuable in treating sore throat.

The oil of cinnamon, mixed with honey, also gives immense relief. A gargle prepared from fenugreek (methi) seeds has been found very effective remedy for treating sore throat. To prepare this gargle, two tablespoons of fenugreek seeds should be put in a litre of cold water and allowed to simmer for half an hour over a low flame. It should be allowed to cool to a bearable temperature. It should then be strained and entire quantity used as a gargle.The leaves of the holy basil (tulsi) have also been found beneficial in the treatment of this condition. The water boiled with basil leaves should be taken as a drink and also used as a gargle in sore throat.The patient should avoid rapid changes in temperature like hot sunshine to air-conditioned rooms.

Lemon %26 Ginger Tea works well for me
My husband swears by vin brule (hot red wine with cinnamon and cloves). We also often do hot milk or tea with honey -- but these are really only temporary remedies that make your throat feel better for a short period of time. They don't really improve the condition behind a sore throat.Our family takes an immune booster called Immune Alert that we love. We take one every day and have noticed that we rarely get sick and when we do the symptoms are mild and we get better faster. It's a natural product, not a medicine, made from a baker's yeast extract -- and there is a lot of science that shows that it works. Much easier to prevent an illness than to cure after the fact! (If you start taking once you are already sick you can double up the dose and you should feel better faster.)

Juice of 1 lemon
Grated Quarter of an inch Ginger
200ml Boiling waterPut all ingredients in a jug, then add the water. Stir and allow to inmfuse and cool to a drinkable temperature. Pour through a tea strainer into a glass and drink.
