This works. I may not have gone by exact amounts. I use sea salt and organic apple cider vinegar. It stopped a sore throat in in tracks. From experience this works fine without salt too and I don't like the taste so I will just use the vinegar myself but I do make it for DH this way.

This works like a charm for sure. It's very strong, think S&V chips on overload...! It needs to be that strong to work though. Even after one batch, my throat felt immediately better. I love Braggs ACV too, mixed with sea salt - great! Thanks for sharing!

I use Bragg's Vinegar all the time. It works wonders for a sore throat. This is much better than any store-bought remedy and much cheaper, too. Thanks for the tip.

This is a strong gargle, and works great! I had a scratchy throat and it helped it. Thanks! Made for Beverage tag.
