Not sure if this is common knowlege or not. But I thought I would share with you how we made (anti) cough syrup when I grew up in poland.
In spring , collect a handful of the pine buds. not sure the correct terminology, the little buds/flowers that begin to form on pine tree branches.
simply throw them into a jar, add sugar, and leave for a month or 6.
You will see a golden syrup forming at the bottom. Tastes great and treats coughs and sore throats.
if this is common knolege within bushcraft community I appologise for wasting your time.
