@Eve @shivvi made me something with whisky in it which helped.

@geekylou @shivvi I may try this technique. My throat feels all nasty 😷

@Eve @geekylou It was a double shot of whiskey, with a large teaspoon of honey, half a teaspoon of nutmeg, a 2mm slice of fresh ginger, chopped, a slug of lemon juice all in a half pint glass and topped with boiling water.
No idea if it cures anything but it sure stops one worrying about it.

@shivvi @Eve Shivi is a social justice healer 😛

@shivvi @geekylou that sounds great. There's a cocktail called Penicillin with a somewhat similar recipe minus the hot water which is also pretty effective in both of those ways 😜🤗😃

@Eve @geekylou In my opinion (for what little it's worth), adding hot water makes it a potion... Though a potion of what, I'm unsure.

@shivvi @geekylou @Eve imo its a potion if you say it is :P

@nire @geekylou @shivvi sounds like a definite potion to me on either interpretation ❤ yeah I think I will have to make this, but maybe I should wait til tomorrow because there still seems to be some hangover component ... (maybe it would be improved by the potion too actually?)

@Eve @shivvi @geekylou if you're hungover you're probably recovering from dehydration, so drink some water w/ some salt in it, or just eat a salty thing

@nire @geekylou @shivvi I have consumed so much water and salt today ... most of it seems to have re-exited because of too much runny nose though lol
