Home Remedies for the Common Cold

Step 6 Whiskey

I found an old bottle of whiskey in the basement, and took a shot. This turned out to be a pretty decent cold remedy, as it made me feel quite a bit better, if only for an hour or so. My logic is that many cough syrups are mostly alcohol, and whiskey tastes much better than that god-awful fake cherry stuff. Of course, you don't need to drink high-quality scotch; rot-gut plastic bottle vodka (or any kind of spirits) would probably still work, but cheap stuff wouldn't taste as good and might give you a hangover.

Please note that this will not make you any healthier. The effects and risks of alcohol consumption are the same (or worse!) if you are sick. Don't drink too much (one shot per hour is plenty), don't have any before driving, and don't drink if you're underage.
