Black Coffee.

After weeks of not drinking hot coffee, I am now enjoying again a cup of hot black coffee. Yes, that's because my throat is hurting. This soothes my throat right now. This has no calorie as well as I did not use sugar. Later on, I will drink hot lemon and honey. But for now I will enjoy the coffee first.

I am sorry for your sore throat. Gargle with warm salt water to reduce the pain.

@rakski I hope you will feel better soon. I even turn on AC on my side in the car, it always gives me sore throat.

It's time for you to see your doctor. You may as well drink warm water or, as @DE suggested , lemon water and honey. These are natural medicines better than any medical treatment.

EWW! How can you drink coffee? Drinking honey and lemon for the sore throat is good, though. You can also drink warm chicken broth and that soothes a sore throat, too.

I hope your throat is no longer hurting. Gargle warm water with salt will help ease your throat.

I like drinking coffee but black coffee is too bitter to me. I prefer coffee with milk and sugar
