Lemon Thyme Throat Soother

1 Tsp Dried Lemon Thyme or 1 Tbsp fresh leaves.
1 Litre Organic Lemonade.
Honey to serve.

Method This wonderfully soothing lemon drink is ideal for helping to ease a sore throat and it is simplicity in itself to make. Lemon thyme (or any thyme come to think of it) makes a wonderful cold cure, my favourite way to soothe a cold is to bring a litre of organic lemonade to the boil in a pan, add some fresh or dried lemon thyme leaves and let it steep for 10-15 minutes, add a teaspoon of honey and warm it through again if needed and sip it slowly to help with a sore throat and to ease nasal congestion. You can use any sort of lemonade but I’ve found that real lemon organic stuff is the best.
