grate fresh ginger, add hot water and honey to taste.

Also, herbal tea "Traditional Medicinals - Throat Coat" will do the trick temporarily.

avoid alcohol and caffeine. they are diuretics.

The important thing with a sore throat is to stay hydrated. run a humidifier or vaporizer while you sleep. If you breathe with your mouth open at night, and it's dry, you'll just aggravate things.

Gargle with warm salt water...as warm as you can stand it. A mixture of honey and lemon can be soothing, too.

Boil pure hot water, add a dash of cinnamon, a little more than a dash of ginger, a tablespoon of molasses and drink. It works. :)
