FAQs
Quick questions
Why warm water instead of boiling?
Warm or room-temperature water keeps the cup gentle and dissolves honey without a harsh scald. Either works for this educational steep.
Must it be Manuka honey?
The original tip names Manuka. Any plain honey can stand in for a kitchen throat drink if Manuka is unavailable. Skip honey for infants under one year.
Does this boost immunity?
No. Treat it as kitchen support for a scratchy throat, not an immunity product or antibiotic substitute.
