A Spicy Remedy
For some it will maybe take a little courage while for others it will be a pleasure, but the key to this remedy is chili pepper. This spicy food is famed for its antimicrobial properties, and consuming chilies can raise your body temperature and make your body an inhospitable environment to any potential invaders.
Here's what you will need:
- 1 cup of herbal tea (like chamomile)
- 1 tbsp. of apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp. of honey
- 1 tsp. of chili pepper (like cayenne)

How To Use The Tea
This natural remedy might be tough going down, but it can fix your sore throat in less than 24 hours. Here's how you should use it:
- Brew a cup of herbal tea. Once it's ready, add the apple cider vinegar, honey and chili, and mix well.
- Take small sips of the tea and gargle for as long as you can, then spit out the liquid without drinking it.
- Repeat for 15 minutes, or until you feel that your throat has been thoroughly coated through gargling.
You will feel a slight burning sensation due to the chili, but that's normal.
