DIY COUGH DROPS

Here is a recipe for some pretty cool tasting coughs drops.  I was inspired to make them when my daughter and husband both caught a cold and passed it on to me.

You will need
- 2 cups organic sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup raw honey
- 1/4 cup butter
- Drops of Essential Oils ( I used 4 of Thieves and 4 of Lemon)
I only use Young Living Essential Oils and only suggest using them if you decide to make this recipe. 
Their oils are 100% pure and natural with no other ingredients added to them.

1. Put all the ingredients except the oils in a heavy pan and cook over medium heat until it reaches that hard rock stag.
2.Do not rush this process, turning the heat up will cause this to burn.
3.Once it boils down and reaches the hard rock stage, remove from heat.  Wait about 30 seconds then add your oils and mix.
4. Pour your mixture onto a greased cookie sheet.  Fold the edges into the middle untill it is cool enough to handle. Once cool enough form into a ball and stretch it out.  I used a knife to cut my pieces but you can use scissors.  Cut into nice size pieces. It seemed like they would soften up a bit so I put them on a cookie sheet and flash froze them.  This step is optional.  I then placed them in a zip-lock bag and stored them in the freezer to keep them hard.
