So... Our little one's are off to school. Here is a recipe for a homemade herbal infusion to combat the common cold. Pharmaceutical cough syrup may contain chemical additives that can have a toxic impact on our children's system.
Horehound cough infusion-
Horehound is an herb that I use to make cough medicine. It's excellent for caugh and congestion. Try making an infusion: 1tbs of herb to 1cup of boiling water, add lemon and a sweetener ( the flavor is pungent). Discard after 48 hours
