Hot tea with honey and lemon. Chicken soup. My kids swear by those two things!

One way to beat a cold is to drink some warm tea and water to beat your head cold.

Herbal teas with things like ginger, elderberry, echinacea, etc. I use a sore throat spray to numb that pain. Saline spray for the stuffiness.

I always recommend zinc (we have a brand of zinc lozenges here called "Zicam"), lots of rest, lots of liquids, and lots of chicken soup. Hope you're better quickly!

Do you have any elderberry syrup? Other people have already made good suggestions. I’d start on some DayQuil, but I don’t know if they have that over there.

I'd probably be starting on cold tablets but the tea with lemon and honey sounds good.
