What does drinking hot honey and lemon actually do for you if anything when you have a cold?

Hot honey is soothing to the throat and is supposed to help with sore throats. Lemon helps with the cold. It never seemed to work for me. Some believe it is just a comfort thing and you could also add a little whiskey if you like the taste.

Lemon and honey in hot water is a traditional Chinese sore throat treatment. Use enough to flavor it like a hot tea. Honey is known to have antibacterial properties. Lemon is high in vitamin C.
