Ginger lemon and honey lozenges for sore throat …given the winter that is coming (yesterday in Bologna it poured for hours and hours) I thought of making these candies with naturally anti-inflammatory and emollient ingredients to relieve early seasonal ailments, and still, before making them, I invite you to tell your doctor because we are not all the same and I care too much about you!
The ingredients have excellent properties, for example, the lemon provides vitamin C, the honey is a natural antibacterial; it loses a little of its properties in cooking but is an excellent soother for throat irritations and if it is thyme honey, it also helps against cough, ginger is anti-inflammatory and also boosts the immune system.

FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE RECIPE GINGER LEMON HONEY LOZENGES FOR SORE THROAT
1) First, mix the powders where you will then pour the lozenge liquid for sore throat and pour them onto a surface leveling well. With a cap of a water or soda bottle, make many impressions on the sugar and cornstarch mix and continue preparation.
2) In a small pot, put the light brown sugar, water, a tablespoon of lemon juice, and thyme honey.
3) Also add the ginger powder and mix well with a spatula or clean spoon.
4) Continue to thicken everything, and when boiling, reduce the heat and continue for about 15/20 minutes. Now test the consistency of the sore throat candies by putting a drop of the boiling mixture into a glass of water, and if it solidifies instantly, it’s ready!

6) My anti-sore throat candies might be a bit thin… as always, you decide if you want them thick or thin!
7) Let everything cool well, then mix and maybe sift the homemade lozenges for sore throat through a sieve to remove much of the powder, and it’s done! The ginger lemon and honey lozenges for sore throat are ready!
8) Store them in an airtight jar and fingers crossed….BONNE SANTÉ!
