Here’s a safe and simple 2-ingredient remedy that can help loosen mucus and soothe your throat. This is for comfort and relief, not a medical cure.
2-Ingredient Mucus-Clearing Drink
Ingredients
- 1–2 teaspoons honey
- 1 cup warm water or herbal tea (like ginger or chamomile)
Instructions
- Warm the liquid – not boiling, just comfortably warm.
- Stir in honey until dissolved.
- Drink slowly while still warm.
How It Works
- Honey: Coats the throat, soothes irritation, and helps reduce coughing.
- Warm liquid: Loosens thick mucus in the chest and throat so it can be expelled more easily.
Tips for Best Results
- Drink 2–3 times a day for relief.
- Use real honey, not artificial sweeteners.
- Add a slice of lemon if you like—it can help break up mucus.
💡 Quick Note:
This remedy is safe for teens and adults, but do not give honey to children under 1 year old.
If you want, I can also give a slightly stronger 3–ingredient version that clears chest and throat mucus faster.
