    Ricola Original Herb – A Trusted Remedy for Your Throat Anytime!

    5 out of 5 stars

    I first tried Ricola Original Herb a few years ago when a cold hit me right before an important meeting. My throat was sore, my voice was fading, and I was desperately looking for something to help fast. That’s when someone recommended these Swiss cough drops with alpine herbs. From the very first drop, I felt the irritation ease, and a pleasant coolness spread through my throat. The taste is unique—herbal, slightly sweet, but not overpowering. You can really taste the mint, sage, and a hint of lemon balm. The best part is they actually work. Now, I always keep a pack in my bag, especially during the colder months. Just recently, they saved me again—I got caught in a draft while out with my child, and by the evening, I had a cough. I grabbed a couple of these drops, and within minutes, I felt relief. They don’t just mask the symptoms; they actually soothe and care for your throat. Now, they’re my go-to remedy, always within reach.

    These cough drops worked almost the moment I put one in my mouth. It suppressed my cough, tasted good, and lasted quite a long time. These cough drops are also an oral anesthetic by way of the herbal ingredients. YES, I would recommend them

    A Winter Essential 🍬🍃🍂🌿

    Ricola herbal candies have always been a favorite of mine, and they’re especially comforting during the winter season. The soothing blend of natural herbs feels like a balm for my throat, providing instant relief from dryness or irritation caused by the cold weather. I also prefer this version in the tin over the individually wrapped candies—it’s so much more convenient to carry and use throughout the day. The subtle, not-too-sweet taste and smooth texture make them a pleasure to enjoy, and the long-lasting flavor keeps my throat feeling refreshed. If you’re looking for a natural, effective, and portable way to care for your throat this season, Ricola is a must-have!

    Since the ears, nose and throat are all connected I used these to help clear my stuffy nose. They do help. I am able to breath a bit more and blow mucus from my nose. They taste great.

    A coworker lent me some of these when I started to get sick at work (turned out it was COVID) but these have become my favorite cough drops/ throat lozenges and the only one I buy when I get colds. The taste is AMAZING. Truly. Most throat drops are so artificial tasting and not generally pleasant but I would take these as a mint if I could. Furthermore I do feel like these soothe and provide relief which is just what you are looking for. Definitely recommend

    These are the best cough drops. They are long-lasting and effective. They help relieve a sore throat and reduce coughing. I do wish the packaging had the option to reseal so that way they don't spill out. But I love that they have natural ingredients.

    These are a necessity when I'm sick. I used them when I had COVID, the flu, colds, and even just for a sore/dry throat. They work so well and I love the herbal taste. They're like nothing else that's on the market.

    Ricola Original Herb Cough Drops are my favorite because they taste good and do the job. The size of the product shrank drastically from the last time I purchased it which was awhile ago. It’s probably half the size. I get it, shrinkflation is everywhere. Despite that, I still feel like these cough drops are bang for your buck. There are a bunch of herbs on the packaging which I assume means it’s in the cough drop itself so you know you are getting a lot of herby goodness for your throat.
