Whisky, Boiling Water, Sugar and Lemon. Luckily I never get colds, because I do not drink alchohol this would not help me but my Stepfather swore by it.

My sure fire remedy is to get a lot of sleep (several days worth) and stay in bed until it goes away. You need to have someone bring you a cup of soup several times during the day, and some toast and juice once or twice a day. Also, keep a pitcher of ice water next to the bed and a cup with a straw, or a sippy cup. Drink several cups of water throughout.

Green tea with honey.

As far as medicine goes, DayQuil is usually pretty good at clearing up my symptoms. For sore throat aid, I use Ricola cough drops with honey, and I also like some warm lemonade or tea to soothe the throat. You might want to skip school or work for a few days, but if you can't, make sure to stock up on cough drops & tissues beforehand!

Dayquil is what I use for the daytime. Nyquil for the nights. +5

I like Alka-Seltzer Cold Remedy during the day to relieve the symptoms, then Ny-Quil (or one of the cheaper generics) at night to help me get some sleep.
-
Lots of OJ and hot soup
-
Hot black tea with ginger, lemon, honey. And when its bedtime, a shot of whisky or brandy in it.

Mine is Zicam. I take it when I notice my first cold symptom. That way my cold (or what might only be post-nasal soreness) only lasts for about 8 hours. I haven't had a fully-developed cold in about 6 1/2 years.
