Sore Throat and mysterious green tea

Would love to hear your suggestions to aid in soothing a sore throat.
I have been sick all week and am gettin worse.
Just brewed a pot of a mixture of jasmine pearls and a semi mystery
green tea. It is hand written on the bag as Yin Tu Green. I remember
in the shop the jar said Yin Tu Green, Spring 2007 flush
however the website says Yun Ju Green.

(from I Dream of Tea or Dream About Tea in Evanston near Chicago,Il
does anyone know more about this particular green

I couldn not find much about it online aside from their website

needless to say the mixture of green and jasmine works well for my
sore throat.

Cheers.

A licorice root tea often soothes sore throats. If you have a
bacterial throat infection, lavender in your tea isn't particularly
soothing but it is surprisingly effective at fighting it (my wife's
physician recommended it to fight mild strep throat when he found she
was allergic to the antibiotic he had planned to give her).

sore throats is most often viral so whatever you do doesn't change the
outcome much = resolution in some number of days.

not sure that you forgo antibiotic in a bacterial infection...
especially for bacterial "strep throat" that has many complications.
since there are other antibiotic alternatives to penicillin "allergy"

as for symptomatic relief i just pop some tylenol or ibuprofen

adding some milk+honey or herbal tea+honey/sugar for pleasure...

I finally caved in and went to my school clinic to get checked out
yesterday.
Good thing too as it turns out I have the lovely fortune of having
Strep and Mono at the same time!
I now have antibiotics and steroids but I must say this is the most
miserable I have felt in ages

thanks for all the suggestions for remedies. I'll be sure to post some
more about that green tea and how it tastes on its own asap once I can
actually taste and smell things again.
