How to prepare antibiotic candies that eliminate sore throat in 4 hours

Sore throat is a very common condition during the cold months, and it can get to be really annoying and painful. In this article we explain how to prepare DIY candies to relieve sore throats based on honey and propolis, two ingredients with very useful and beneficial properties.

You need: 40 ml of mineral water, 100 grams of brown sugar, 30 grams of organic honey, 1 teaspoon of propolis extract and about 10-20 drops of lemon essential oil. The use of thyme or eucalyptus honey is recommended.

Propolis has great natural antibiotic properties, and can be really useful for fighting sore throats. Honey also plays its part, thanks to its remarkable antibiotic properties.

Bring the water, brown sugar and honey to a boil, and continue to simmer, stirring well to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the saucepan. Once it reaches 160 °C (use a food thermometer), remove from the stove.

Once the preparation has cooled, you can add the propolis and essential oil, and mix well to make them integrate completely.

Pour the mixture into candy molds, and add a few drops of olive oil to prevent it from sticking to them. Refrigerate for a few hours to cool and solidify.

Remove from molds, and store in a mason jar. It is recommended to eat a candy every 2 hours in case of a sore throat.
