Janet's Cough Syrup

Janet's Cough Syrup

Many years ago, I had the cold from hell (looking back it might have been pneumonia) while visiting my friend on Spring Break. Her parents gave me their standard "cough syrup" remedy:

Bourbon and brown sugar. Pack a tablespoon with brown sugar and then soak the sugar with bourbon. I have to say, I slept sooooo good that night.

Funny, I've recommended that to other parents to their absolute horror. Whodathunk? :)
