Tired of paying money for a cough syrup that is full of chemicals? Want to make one yourself at home? Now you can!
All you need is an onion and some honey.
The honey itself is often included in cough mixtures, because it has antimicrobial and expectorant properties.
Manuka honey is especially good because it has been scientifically shown to kill and protect against drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, commonly called MRSA.
