Re: Throat Remedies...please!!
Warm a tablespoon of honey and put a pinch of black-pepper powder and take that 3 times a day (doesn't taste bad)
Make a "gahwah" out of ginger, lemon and honey, cloves =)

^ Thanks Gina 
‘Ghawa’? I think I know what you mean…we call it 'kavah’I think…it’s a hot drink made with tea-leaves and mint etc right…?
Re: Throat Remedies...please!!
gargle twice a day with bearably hot water with salt and aspirin mixed in it. keep honey lozenges or cough drops on hand before your meeting.

Re: Throat Remedies...please!!
gargling is the thing to go for sore throat. Try it three times a day. Also lozenges should provide some immediate relief.
