Although these warm soup recipes help ease the discomfort of a sore throat, in order to actually reduce throat inflammation, experts recommend gargling with warm salt water. Faced with a dry, itchy, or sore throat? Take salt water gargling one step further with聽GoGargle!
Created by a mother and registered nurse, GoGargle! Salt Gargle combines 12 ingredients such as honey, chamomile, and aloe vera, to help sooth and diminish the effects sore throats.
As a little girl, whenever faced with a sore throat, I remember my mother making me gargle with warm salt water. Although it always helped, I HATED the taste. That’s one thing that I LOVE about GoGargle! – the delightful minty taste makes gargling a lot more enjoyable. Not to mention, the calming relief is instant! I’ve never experienced such quick and long lasting relief; GoGargle! works miracles!
My husband also appreciates GoGargle!’s minty fresh taste and instant relief as well. Suffering from allergies, gargling with GoGargle! a few times a day helps take away the dry and itchy feeling in his throat. Best of all, GoGargle! is super easy to use!
Start by filling up a glass with 1/2 cup of warm water. Dropping one effervescent salt gargle GoGargle! tablet into the water, allow it to dissolve until the fizzing stops.
Swish the GoGargle! solution around in your mouth (making sure to gargle in the back of your throat) for about 10-15 seconds. Spit out聽(be sure not to swallow) GoGargle! and enjoy a calm and non-irritated sore throat.
There’s no reason why you should have to suffer from a sore throat with you have GoGargle! Try GoGargle! just once and I’m sure you’ll love it just as much as my family does. Be sure to visit GoGargle! to find a retailer near you!
Oh the snowman soup is so adorable!!! For sore throats, we really do not do too much. Sometimes we will do the cough drops as they help soothe! I would love to try the Go Gargle!
Thank you for the recipe selection, we sure could use this around here. We just went through a round of sore throats.
What a great product! I too. always used salt water as a child for sore throat pain. The soups all look so delicious! To this day my “baby” (a 25 year old man with a 4 year old little boy himself!) always wants me to make potato soup for him when he isn’t feeling well.
I’ll have to try some of these recipes next winter. Thanks for sharing!
Boy the soups look and sound wonderful and I know they would feel great on a sore throat. I definitely want to try the Olive Garden Minestrone and the French Onion Soup. We do the salt water thing too. I would really like to try the GoGargle too.

I’m bothered with sore throats quite often. Thanks for these ideas
i love soup especially French Onion Soup, the snowman soup is adorable! Definitely sounds like a great way to soothe a sore throat, I need this last week!

Sounds like a great product! Those recipes all look delicious!
I hate getting sore throats. I’ve actually been waking up with them the past few days in a row. That GoGarle stuff is something I could certainly use. I tried gargling salt water and I couldn’t even do it because it was so gross. Those soup recipes look amazing!
Ugh, sore throats are the WORST… I have tried just about everything. I will totally be trying these out the next time I get a sore throat. Thanks for sharing.
I like to soothe a sore throat with hot tea or by putting whole cloves in hot water, it really helps.
A sore throat usually seems to be my biggest ailment when I’m sick. I’m going to have to try some GoGargle the next time it comes along.
With allergy season coming up, I need to get some of this. Sore throats are the worst.
I tried that GoGargle and really like it. They have it at CVS near us.
I hate it when I have a sore throat. Not being able to swallow makes it so hard to eat and drink. I am going to make some of those soups YUM!

All those soups look so yummy! I usually just pop in a throat drop.
Oh, now you have me craving a comforting soup! French onion is my all time fave!
Every year I get the worst strep or soar throat. I usually gargle with warm salt water but it doesn’t give me the relief I need. I have never tried GoGarle but it sounds nice. Thanks for the recipes as well.
I love everything about this. GoGargle sounds great for my sore throat, and everyone knows there’s nothing like soup to make you feel better!
These soups all look so good! I want to try the tomato soup- I am obsessed with tomato soup and grilled cheese all year ’round!
I love all those soups above! Since we are sick this week at our home, I am interested in trying this product!
I would love to try the snowman soup because it looks cute!
