Place the pot on the stove, keep the heat very low, and stir the sugar to caramelize. When the sugar has dissolved, you can add a glass of hot water and the bay leaves and stir well. The whole thing should continue to simmer on a low heat for another three minutes and be covered with a lid.
After three minutes, remove the container from the heat and let it cool down. Meanwhile, prepare the lemon (a great antioxidant) by adding a tablespoon of sodium bicarbonate to a bowl of water and stirring thoroughly. Put the lemon in the bowl and wash it thoroughly, dry it and clean it with a towel: then cut one half of the lemon into slices while squeezing the other.
At this point, strain the bay leaf syrup with a fork, pour it into a bottle or pot and add the lemon juice to the syrup: Finally, you need to add one or two lemon slices to the syrup. The jar should be closed with a lid and stored in the refrigerator. The solution should be taken for two weeks: three spoons a day are enough to relieve the cough and immediately feel better.
