Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / February 2005Kind of OT: Need recipe for hot lemon stuff
I am looking for a recipe for the hot lemon stuff for cough and chest congestion. I have pneumonia now.. it is no fun either. I went to the doc yesterday and he said that he could not hear breath sounds in my right lung and said he would like to put me in the hospital. I have yet to meet my 4000.00 deductible so I asked him if he could try to treat it aggressively from home and then if I am not better then stick me in there. So far so good.. after a shot of Roceftin and some take home meds and antibiotics. I am doing allot better. I just think this lemon stuff might be soothing. I go get checked again tomorrow so I think he will be pleased. I am doing better and I feel like my lungs have opened up I am also on albuterol. That helps but gives me the jitters. If anyone has the recipe then please let me know how to make it. I think it has whiskey in it.??? RhondaM Something like this? Hot Toddy 1 ounces Whiskey 1 ounce Honey ounce Lemon Juice 3 ounces Water (Hot) If you have a microwave, the easiest way to make this drink is to warm the honey and lemon juice for about half a minute and then to add hot water and the whiskey. Otherwise, we recommend that you stir the honey and lemon juice into extremely warm water, allow it to cool slightly, and add the whiskey. (I've also seen it mentioned that you can add this to a cup of tea to make it taste better...) Hope that helps Kimmy Dang - that didn't format well, let's try again... Ingredients should read: 1 1/3 ounce Whiskey 1 ounce Honey 1/3 ounce Lemon Juice 3 ounces Water (Hot) I searched "whiskey lemon congestion" on google and came up with lots of hits - you may want to flip through a few more if this doesn't sound like the recipe you're looking for.

And a lot of determination to make me drink it before it got cold. Jo As far as I know it is just lemon juice whiskey and hot water. About a teaspoon of lenon juice, a jugger of booze and the rest water. |
