curtiscr79:Over the past few days my throat has been sore and has been getting worse and worse with every day. It was getting so bad last night I wasn't able to finish my cigar. Anyone have a home remedy they could recommend? I really want to be able to enjoy a smoke Christmas morning or at the very latest New Years Eve.

Anyone have a home remedy they could recommend? I really want to be able to enjoy a smoke Christmas morning or at the very latest New Years Eve. Having just researched this last week, the best answers seem to be anything that coats your throat and soothes it. The coating is most important. My favorite remedy that seemed to give me an hour or 2 during my worst sore throats is a tablespoon of honey and lemon juice. Make sure it goes down your throat together. Otherwise, gargling warm salt water can do wonders as well.

Anyone have a home remedy they could recommend? I really want to be able to enjoy a smoke Christmas morning or at the very latest New Years Eve. Our recipe is a bit different. A shot of Southern Comfort Tablespoon of honey ! squeezed lemon Mix and drink slowly, let it kinda slide down your throat. Repeat often. If you are coming down with what ripped through here a couple of months ago prepare for the long hall and every symptom you have ever had. It just goes on and on. Mine lasted 8 weeks.

I really hope it doesn't last 8 weeks. I have so many great cigars to smoke.

Cigary:Sore throats and cigars do not mix....the smoke irritates the lining of your throat and then inflames it. The reason it gets inflamed is to counter the effects of the irritant so until you stop with the smoking your throat will being to heal. Sometimes we just gottta bite the bullet and heal. My Dads Hot Toddy recipe that I used to drink even when I was a kid still works today: Cup of your favorite tea 1 ounce of lemon juice 2 jiggers of whiskey ( knob creek or similar ) 1 ounce of pure honey Mix with 6 ounces of water w/tea.....heat and steep tea bag in mix for a good minute and drink HOT... This will help you sleep and will help heal the lining of your throat. If after a few days of taking this that it isn't healing then see your Dr......

This is almost my recipe except that I use hot water instead of tea. He gave us the tea as kids so it would be tasty enough to drink and these days with so many types of flavor profiles Hot Toddies are what keep me from getting colds...have not had one in 10 years because of this stuff. It's like the Airborne except this is a home remedy that if I feel my throat getting a bit scratchy I drink a 16 ounces cup of this recipe w/bigelow vanilla and caramel tea....wow!!!! This is like dessert and I sleep like a baby all night and the next day my throat feels great.
