Now, I'm no doctor, but I would definitely give it a try if I had&nbsp;the illness. It certainly sounds better than taking the nasty over-the-counter-stuff.All you need are four simple ingredients that you might have at the house already.

The lemon juice is for your dose of vitamin C.Creating this bourbon cough syrup is super easy. Here is&nbsp;what&nbsp;The Kitchnn&nbsp;says that you need to do:Bourbon Cough Syrup for Grownups2 ounces bourbon/whiskey1/2 lemon, juiced (about 2 ounces)2-4 ounces water (optional)1 tablespoon honeyMix the bourbon, lemon juice, and water (if using) in a tumbler or mug and heat in the microwave for about 45 seconds. (You can also do this on the stovetop in a little saucepan.) Take out and add the honey. Whisk to combine, then microwave for another 45 seconds.Now remember, that too much whiskey can dehydrate you, so don't overdo it with the adult cough syrup. If you want to avoid alcohol or make a simple cough syrup for your kids, consider mixing&nbsp;hot lemon juice and honey or hot milk and honey before bedtime. Give it a try and see how well it works for you. I tried it out in the past and I definitely noticed a difference.Don't know what to get Dad for Father's Day?
