Irish whiskey or scotch whisky?

If that does not work, try Brandy, it makes you...

Rum, hot milk and honey is better seems to sweat it out overnight.

Wtf! That sounds vile!

Nah, lovely mate . Easy on the belly too

Fresh sliced ginger and lemon boiled up in a pan that's what sorts you out.

Hot whisky and lemonade is a canny sup like.

Add a bit of local honey to the above and i'm in full agreement marra

What the fuck is this hot water shit; just drink it on its own, much more effective that way

Couldn't agree more. Making the whiskey 'hot' just evaporates the only active ingredient in it; alcohol.

Drink it at room temperature and you'll feel much better.

Until you wake up the next morning.

Correct mate, I realised my mistake but couldn't edit. A natural solution and is a lot cheaper too.

My old dad always said that a nip of whiskey never cured his cold but it did make him feel a lot better about it (true).

How ‘local’ does the honey need to be, have heard local honey is good for treating hayfever also

Whisky and Night Nurse. Should give you a solid 16 hours sleep. You’ll be a new man when you wake up.

Just make sure you don’t leave anything on that could set on fire.

Probably around a 10 -20 mile radius and similar surroundings to where you live. My daughters school make their own within the school grounds £4.50 a jar so reasonable enough, and ive noticed a big difference to some of my allergies so there must be something in it

I flatten at least half a bottle with hot lemonade and honey at the first sign and I've never had a fully fledged cold or flu for decades. I'm convinced it works like fuck....
