A friend of mine shared this wonderful remedy to overcome sore throats. Squeeze 1/2 or 1 lemon, add some honey and mix with lukewarm water. Apparently Andy Serkis drank this concoction when he was playing Gollum in the LOTR series, and people on set call it 'Gollum Juice'. That's a piece of hearsay trivia for you.
