How to Make a Natural Cough Syrup KLS

Kalamansi, Luya and Sampalok

Here's a good natural remedy for cough that you can easily make at home, the KLS cough syrup or the Kalamansi-Luya-Sampalok syrup

It is done by boiling green sampalok (unripe tamarind) until soft and set aside until cool and mashed it to extract the juice with small amount of boiled water,  grate the fresh  ginger and mix it with Kalamansi juice, put it in a blender (optional) or set aside in a few minutes, then filter it with fine strainer then add some pure, raw, wild honey into the mixture to thicken it. The extract is now the KLS syrup, put it in a clean bottle and can be refrigerated when not in use (good for a week).

Take 1-3  tablespoon, three times a day before meals, shake well before using. The honey and kalamansi will help decongest and expel the mucus, while the ginger and kalamansi will sooth your throat, lungs and respiratory system. 

Try it!
