That's not really a spell. It's more of an herbal remedy. The herbs are definitely helpful, the steam helps open things up, and gargling the salt water helps clear up mucus, and reduces swelling.

Also (another herbal remedy, but you can add a spell to it while you prepare if you'd like), mallow tea with honey is amazing for clearing up a sore throat! The best mallow to use for this is generally Marsh Mallow (Althaea Officinalis), but Common Mallow (Malva Neglecta) works just as well and is generally easier to find (unless you know someone growing a marsh mallow for decoration or a fellow herbalist who grows it, it can be hard to find just growing wherever in climates that aren't particularly wet, but sometimes it grows in flood-protection reservoirs, wetland type areas, etc, and of course near bodies of water. Think places cattails would grow. Common mallow is less picky and will grow in a well-watered lawn, in grass at parks, I've even seen it in sidewalk cracks, but it gravitates toward wetter conditions too). Just take some of the leaves and/or root (the root makes for a stronger tea, but both make the water thicker, and the leaves seem to do that less if you have food consistency issues), rinse them off really well, and boil them for about 10 minutes. When it's cooled down to a drinkable temp (but still hot), add anywhere from a teaspoon to a tablespoon of honey (the more the better, but if honey's not your thing that's ok, it just makes it more coating), stir clockwise (for good luck and positive healing vibes, if you believe in stirring direction lore) and drink it straight without cream or sugar. I know that might sound nasty, but the honey will help make it sweeter and more palatable, and cream/milk/etc will make it too thin to coat right. I hope this helps you out!!
