It’s that time of year again where everyone is getting sick. Both of my daughters have been sick for over a week now. When I get a sore throat I like to use cough drops. I’m sure you have all tried cough drops before, right? I love any of the cherry flavored cough drops. Those are my favorite ones. They don’t always do the trick, but they seem to work for a while. I have had the opportunity to try the Pine Bros softish throat drops.
Instead of having cough drops that are hard, Pine Bros cough drops are soft. I love gummy candies, so these cough drops were amazing! Of course the cherry ones were my favorite. Isn’t it nice to have a soft cough drop instead of a hard one? I love that they are soft because the hard cough drops seem to feel like they will ruin my teeth. I tend to bite on the harder cough drops and I know that’s bad for my teeth. With the soft ones, I don’t have to worry about them hurting my teeth. I know that if I try to bite on these they won’t hurt since they’re so soft.
The Pine Bros cough drops couldn’t have come at a better time. I had received them and roughly a week later I started getting a sore throat. I knew it was the perfect time to test these out. I was amazed at how well they worked. Usually with the other cough drops my sore throat returns after being done with it. With the Pine Bros my sore throat didn’t return for a few hours, if not a day later. I can honestly say these are one of my favorite cough drops now. A lot of that has to do with them being soft and having the cherry flavor. They also have honey flavored cough drops. They have a limited quantity of licorice for the holiday season and coming soon they will have lemon-citrus.
Herman Pine along with his brother, sold their first batch of Pine Bros in 1870. They called them the Pine Brothers Glycerine Tablets. Mr Pine was determined to make a product that could sooth sour throats for his family and himself. He combined the soothing natural qualities of glycerin with the healing properties of gum acacia. He then added some flavoring and sweetener and that’s when the Pine Bros were born.
You can buy these products at many of your local food and drug stores. If you like to use cough drops for your sore throat, try out the Pine Bros cough drops. These are especially great for those that don’t like the hard cough drops. Why not sooth your throat with soft cough drops instead.
