A good Cough Syrups for a mucous cough
A good Cough Syrups for a mucous cough
Use a small metal bowl of 1 dl to heat honey and glycerin in. It must not get too hot (max 30 °C), but just melt together. Cool slightly and mix in Vodka and lemon juice. Drizzle 5 drops of Peppermint oil in and stir. Pour into a 250 ml clean sterile bottle. The mixture that you have just made takes up approx. 100 ml and it is now diluted with approx. 100 ml of concentrated blackcurrant juice or the juice you prefer.

Alcohol content in alcoholic beverages can be calculated by this formula: alcohol [ml] = amount [ml] * vol.%. Thus, a bottle of schnapps gives 700 ml * 40% = 280 ml pure alcohol. Or 280 * 0.789 = 221 grams pure alcohol. One unit of alcohol is equal to 12 g of pure alcohol (ethanol CH3CH2OH), and in a 40% vol Vodka there are 221/12 = 18.4 unit of alcohol, each of 70/18.4 = 3.8 cl Vodka. Glycerin is also a "sugar alcohol" that helps increase the alcohol percentage in cough syrup? There is 16 ml of alcohol in 200 ml of the cough syrup. It provides an 8% vol strength.

*Callunaheide Honey is a special heather honey that comes from large heather areas in Germany, Norway and the Pyrenees . This heather honey is very tough and sticky, so it makes a good cough syrup for productive coughs. The soothing enzymes in honey die at temperatures above 38 °C.
