Herb tea for happy throats

I still go all cringey and gaggy-feeling upon remembering that wretched Chloraseptic stuff my mom used to give me to treat sore throats when I was still wee. Luckily I grew into a somewhat health-obsessed adult with slightly hippie tendencies, thus enabling me to discover remedies such as Traditional Medicinals’ Throat Coat tea. A must-have for the winter season, the soreness-easing, scratch-soothing blend includes licorice, slippery elm, and marshmallow root. Says shopcaster missbloom:

“I’m a singer and after tons of rehearsals and performances my voice gets pretty tired. Anytime my throat starts feeling irritated I reach for a big, well-steeped cup of this tea. The slippery elm root is very soothing for scratchy, tired throats and the taste is sweet and mellow (though it takes a little getting used to at first). Almost every other vocalist I know also swears by the stuff.”

This tea is the Bomb. I am also a musician and singer. Also, I'm a smoker, singing and smoking does not go together well. I use Throat Coat even after nearly losing my voice, and preformed perfectly the following night. I am one of those guys that swear by the stuff, I even add a bit of honey to it, and it intensifies the effects. Thank you for this blog, it is all TRUE!
