You may not believe it, but not everything that comes out of my kitchen tastes horrible, but this horrible tasting homemade cough syrup is THE BOMB! Kim from the worship team (thank you FOREVER Kim!), has a croupy son, and has dealt with coughing, coughing, and more coughing, so she finally found this recipe for cough syrup, and it really does work.
I got this recipe about one year ago, the same time frame that Aline came from Brazil to work for us. We've had two bouts of sickness-both involving coughing, since she's been here, the latest being the flu (did you know you cough during the flu?? ), and both times, Aline has taken the homemade Cough Syrup recipe, and single handedly refused the illness and the cough.
I was downing it myself when I got the flu on Saturday, and by Saturday night, we were able to go to church. There's still a little "weakness", but the cough has mainly come and go-And you really do need all of this hype in order to "swallow", but it's WORTH it! I promise! Tonight, Michael was coughing every 3 minutes, and I instantly made up some syrup, took it into him, made him drink it…and peace has pervaded our home.
