Pine Cone Cough syrup

Pine Cone Cough Syrup

This syrup works wonderfully for a cough! It helps not only adults, but kids too. Drugstore syrups often contain alcohol and various fragrances, which aren't always pleasant to take — but this syrup is made entirely from natural ingredients!

Cooking method

Step 1:
1. Take enough young green pine cones to fill a 3-quart (3-liter) jar. Rinse them well with water.
Step 2:
1. Next, take about 800 grams (4 cups) of sugar and layer the cones with it.
Step 3:
1. Close the jar tightly with a lid and set it in a dark place for about 10 days. Shake the jar now and then, since the cones release their juices. The sugar should dissolve completely.
Step 4:

Once the cones start releasing their juices and the sugar has fully dissolved, the syrup will take on a caramel color. Take 1 tablespoon of this syrup twice a day.
