Homemade Cough Remedy Getting rid of a lingering cough can be difficult. But a recent study discovered an easy, natural solution that works far better than prescription cures. A remedy made from honey and coffee reduced cough frequency by 93%, compared with 20% for a steroid and almost no effect from a cough suppressant medication. Mix about five parts honey to one part instant coffee crystals. Drink one tablespoon of the mixture in about seven ounces of water every eight hours as needed.
