What helped most with a cold?!

Question

We had a pretty severe temp drop where I’m from (80s one day and 35 by the next morning!) so of course I got a cold! 😑 I also have sinus pressure because of it all! What helps you ladies best? I hav been drinking hot tea, salt water gargle, 2 cough drops so far, and Tylenol. But still feel like crap! Help!

Answer

Make chicken vegetable soup from scratch. It's a bit of work, but truly magic. I make it everytime my hubby gets sick. Cut up a ton of veggies and add some chicken thighs (skin and all), a big onion, some garlic cloves, some ginger and put it all into a big pot . Add cold water until it is just covered. Put the lid on the pot. Slowly bring to a boil. As soon as it boils, turn down temperature to low and let it simmer for 1,5 hours. After that, discard the veggies (all their flavour will be in the broth), peel the chicken, get rid of the bones. Add chicken meat back to the broth, add desired veggies and/or noodles and cook until veggies are done. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Another thing I swear by and is super yummy: grate some fresh ginger, squeeze a fresh organic lemon, add honey and cinnamon. Pour hot water over and let it steep for a bit. Super yummy drink and boosts your immune system. Salt water spray for your nose is always good. Warm showers/baths can help with the steam. 
Hope you feel better soon!
