I actually put honey in it as well and hubby says it does work. If ever I have a cold and make myself one he always wants one as well even if he does not have a cold.
Samantha here. Ben has a horrendous cold ar the moment. Thick yellow snot, headache, loss of appetite and zero energy which is the worst part 
. He goes to work which involves heavy lifting etc and when he comes home hes exhausted. He has a day off tomorrow so hoping he rests up and can shift it. Im going to see if he will let me ride him later 
. Fuck it out of him 
. Or catch it myself 
. Needless to say im filling him full of lemsips, paracetamol, water and chocolate (works for me).
Samantha here. On the subject of colds. How did you all cope when you had covid if you cought it? We bought at the same time and I just remember us taking loads of flu tablets to make us feel abit better for an hour so we could have sex . Problem was, our lungs were so battered, we were having 5 min quickies and ben would collapse like he’d run a marathon . Strange times but this memory makes me giggle.
Lucky enough to not get covid while others did and when I did catch something like a cold I just work and get my head down and on task I normally burn through the symptoms within 24 hrs.
We have both had covid three times for hubby and twice me. Hubby got it really bad first time and not so bad second and third times. When I had it it was just like a mild cold. I didn’t take anything really apart from my hot milk with whisky and honey but hubby was taking lemsips and strepsils and slept a lot.
That’s the cure my husband swears by. Not sure myself, but happy to give it a go
