  1. Raspberries

    Share Share Post
    Long ago in Ireland raspberries were used to cure a sore throat. First the raspberries are pulled of the branches and then boiled. When they are boiled the juice is strained out of them. It is then put in bottles for a day or two.This should be gargled as many times in the day as possible.
