Pine Bros Softish Throat Drops Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.


When I was a child and had the beginnings of a scratchy throat or dust cough, I remember my mother handing me a Pine Bros Honey or Cherry Softish Throat drop. They were a balm to my throat and a memory made to cherish.  My mother was the only person who knew what to give me when I had these little non serious ailments.

Upon popping the drop in my mouth I would let it slowly dissolve and it felt like the melting drop was coating my throat with something to stop the tickle or scratch and it was way better than those nasty throat sprays or prescriptions by the dreaded doctors.

The honey flavored were actually my favorite because to me the taste was like fresh honey from the jar just in a manageable drop without the stickiness and mess of jar honey.  I could really savor the flavor and even the aroma was like honeysuckle flowers!  The cherry ones were also good but more tart rather than sweet which made the product diversified having the contrast of the two. 

These drops were a staple in the house during those long winters and I was really disappointed when the company stopped distributing them around my teen years because hard candies and throat lozenges never really worked as well as these little gummy miracles for me. 

I was so pleased when the company came out again a few years ago with the original recipes and I was able to find the product locally.  Lo and behold, it brought back those wonderful childhood memories of mom and still works like a charm to soothe those silly little throat nuisances.  The honey still tastes fresh and clean and reminds me of straight out of the jar and the cherry still has that slight tartness that reminds me of a cherry tree on a spring day.

I say go out and buy them the next time you feel that little tickle in your throat that generally means nothing and try them.  They are awesome!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Rapid Release Pain Relief That Works

I love sampling products that I know come from trusted brands and from a site that comes through with lots of awesomeness.  I am talking about Crowdtap with whom I have been a loyal user of for a few years now. This newest sampling is a brand you may be familiar with as I have written about it before a few years ago.  I am talking about Advil.  This product is a Rapid Release formula and makes it their fastest acting Advil to date.  I received my samples recently and funnily enough immediately following a short stay in hospital for a pain related malady. Coincidence? Maybe fate was looking down? Either way it was pretty incidental. The samples were such a relief because I choose not to take prescription painkillers unless absolutely supremely necessary. The way I was feeling at that moment was that I know Advil has worked in the past and I was hoping it would work this time too. I would have been disappointed not to be able to bounce back a little q...

Spritz'n Clean Amazing Ion Phone Cleaner

I really like this product.  Cell phones and tablets are among the dirtiest technology that we cannot live without these days.  Do you realize that if you do not clean the screens of the units and continue to use them you are just piling on the germs and spreading them around? If the unit touches your skin on your face when you are using it the germs make contact and this is a perfect a Not to mention the natural oils in your hands smudge the screens and make them unreadable. This is a great product for taking care of those nasty devices and ensuring you get a shiny screen and no germs to spread. You fill the chamber with the cleaning liquid and it comes out in an ionized fine mist on the screen.  You use the special MicroChamois that is infused with silver to wipe the screen.  Silver is known to have antimicrobial/antibacterial properties. That's it.  It could not be simpler and it works!  You get a nice carrying case for the device and a nice pouc...

This is a beautiful bar accessory - this cocktail shaker set.  I heart it for several reasons. 1) Stainless steel is becoming ever more popular these days in kitchen gadgets and accessories.  My household is moving to that genre so I thought this would be a nice set would be a nice start to that in my household. 2) It is not just the shaker that makes this it is also the jigger measure that comes with it in order to measure out 1/2 oz and 1 oz of additives for more precise cocktails. There are also 2 pour spouts which are a great bonus that will ensure the drinks have the right amount of liquor and taste awesome! The set comes boxed nicely.  Inside there is a black velour bag and each piece of the set is packaged in plastic so there are no scratches. The bag is a plus because you can take it with you on the go if your friends don't have a fully stocked set of bar accessories. It also is easy to store it back in the bag which will preserve the beautiful look of ...
