Ricola wants to help us all feel better in this cold and flu season, so they provided me with some of their fantastic cough drops and a gift card in exchange for sharing their cough drops and this fantastic giveaway with you! Opinions are 100% my own.
Sick Baby, Sick Hubby, and Sick Mommy
Absolutely no fun. Thankfully, we weren’t all sick at the same time. Micah has a little stomach flu and was sleepy and pukey for a few days. Then Peter caught a cold and had an upset stomach. After they both got better, it hit me: a cold and an ear infection. Icky. It went around the church, around the hospital, around the whole town. No one wants to be sick, especially around Christmas and New Years!
Ricola Can Help!
Ricola Chruterchraft cough drops can help any sore throat or cough. “Chruterchraft is Swiss for Ricola’s secret magical blend of 10 herbs that is in every cough drop. It stands for efficacy and enjoyment, incorporating all of the Ricola values into one word.” So, whether it’s their square herbal drops, or their Extra Strength drops with the cough syrup center, they are strong and powerful. Peter was the first to try the cough drop with the liquid center and was impressed at how mild the drop was, until he hit the center. Then, WOW! he was impressed by the strength of the cough syrup. Throat-soothing and cough-kililng. Can’t beat that. They don’t taste spectacular, but they work well.

My Grandfather’s Cure: Boil 1 cup molasses and 1/4 cup very sharp vinegar until syrup forms a firm ball in water (8-10 minutes), add 1/2 of a small RAW onion, finely diced. Remove from heat, pour into buttered tin or bowl. The victim, (Me), was required to consume all of it at one sitting. Needless to say, I didn’t pretend to get sick very often.
We run the vaporizer I think that helps alot.
