One of my favorite drinks when I'm sick is Gatorade. I'm not sure if it really helps or if it's a placebo effect, but I think it works. I woke up sick today so me, my wife, and son went to the store to get some stuff for the house and some Gatorades. I got 2 and my wife got 3.
The one shown here is a cherry flavor, but it doesn't taste enough like cherry. I still like it, but I wish it had a sweeter flavor. Then the other one I bought was the original yellow. I will enjoy drinking these slowly throughout the day.
