Over the counter cough medicine for coughs and colds taste terrible. Most of the time they don’t work, and can be very expensive. There is also the risk of side effects.

I prefer a more natural approach to help us during cough, cold and flu season. This honey ginger cough syrup recipe is just what you need.

There are loads of foods and spices that are jammed packed with healing properties. I would much rather fight a cough and cold with food than medication. We all know soup makes us feel better when we are sick. Nothing better than wrapping your hands around a nice hot bowl of pho, or mushroom soup to warm you up.

I did some searching and reading to find a better way to win the fight and yes it actually does exist. Natural cough remedies are a great alternative.

I have been suffering from a persistent cough for the last week. Finally, after trying to go to sleep with zero success for the fourth night, I decided to look something – ANYTHING – up to try to relieve this. I came upon this recipe and immediately went to the kitchen to make it. I will be honest, was not expecting the “whoa, my goodness!” moment I had when I took the first tsp. I will, however, admit that just the one teaspoon was certainly enough, for now anyway. Thank you for sharing this, it has turned out to be a very welcome “miracle.”

Barbara says:

I’ve had a horrible cough for over 3 weeks, actually had to postpone surgery because of it. I took so many otc cough syrups and nothing worked. Last night I found this…OMG I was skeptical but this stuff works! I actually slept last night without waking up coughing my head off. Thank you so much!

M. Corey says:

It works! It did a better job than the px cough medicine given to my husband. It has a bit of a punch, so some may wish to decrease the amount of cayenne pepper added. 

DIY Cough Syrup Recipe Tips

• For this recipe, I used *(affiliate) raw unfiltered honey. I find the liquid version works best as it dissolves a little easier. Creamed or *(affiliate) Manuka honey would also be great alternatives.
• Be sure to use *(affiliate) organic apple cider vinegar for the best health benefits. 
• If you are going to make it for kids, you might want to cut back on the cayenne, they might find it too spicy.
• *(affiliate) Ceylon cinnamon also called “true” cinnamon is a better choice than the Cassia variety found in grocery stores.
