Home Remedies for Sore Throat During the colder months I sometimes need a natural way to soothe a sore throat. Tea with honey is my favorite remedy, but when I want a quicker solution grabbing a throat lozenge from my purse or cupboard is hard to beat. The last time I shopped for throat drops I was disgusted with the ingredients - things like artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners, and preservatives.

Best Herbal Remedies Best Herbal Remedies Not long ago, American herbalists had to rely on folklore and anecdote.
