Cough Ease Syrup
Marshmallow Althaea officinalis root: 2 ounces
Thyme Thymus vulgaris herb: 2 ounces

Simmer herbs slowly in the water until the liquid is reduced to one pint. Strain into a
measuring jug and note how much liquid you have. Return the liquid to a clean
saucepan and add one cup of honey for each cup of liquid. Return to the heat and
simmer slowly until it thickens, about five to 10 minutes. Cool, bottle, and
refrigerate. Use one tablespoon every two to three hours or one teaspoon every
two to three hours for a child. ~ACHS
