Now here is something which you should not be afraid of trying when you have a
really sore
throat and want your voice remain in shape:

Take one onian and rasp it the finest possible way;
Take 0.25l white wine
Take 0.10l honey

Mix the ingredients in a bottle and let it rest for at least 24hrs.

Then gurgle with it - if you drink it, it will do no harm but taste horrible!
This is the "secret" my singing teacher, who was active over 30 years on opera
houses, swears it helps.
I have tried it twice and indeed, it works.

Have fun trying.
Kurt
