Beckham,
I like Peppermint schnapps. Especially when I get a cold, or have the flu. If I have a sore throat, I drink it on ice, when no sore throat is present, I like it heated.
It's like a prescription from a doctor. Sip three or four healthy shots of it and even if you don't feel better, you don't give a darn!
Of course over four can create a second illness, with symptoms similar to a hangover...
