Old Timey Cough Syrup

You start out with a pint mason jar and fill it half full with whiskey or vodka or maybe even brandy. Next you fill it to within one inch from the top of the jar with molasses.

Add in 5 tsp. of fresh squeezed lemon juice. Take 5 peppermint candies and crush them. You could put in a bag and whack them with a rolling-pin. Put those in the jar.

Now you start a medium pot of water boiling on the stove. Then turn it off. Then you shake-shake-shake the mason jar, with the lid on. Now just sit the jar down in the water for an hour or two and then shake it some more and it will mix up better now.

Adults take 2 tbsp. and maybe big kids a tsp. I am not a Dr. so I am not claiming that this will cure you. But as for me, I believe in the old ways/
