My pediatrician gave this to my Mom at least '30-something' years ago. It is supposed to help reduce high fevers, vomiting and settle upset tummies. Gingerale still reminds me of being sick and stuck in bed all day with my comic books. Ingredients:
1 quart warm water |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1 tablespoon sugar |
4 tablespoons orange juice |
ginger ale or coke |
Directions:
1. Mix all the ingredients except gingerale or coke.
2. When ready to drink, mix 1 ounce of electrolyte with 1 ounce of gingerale or coke.
3. Give this every hour for up to 10 to 12 doses per day.
4. Keep unused portion refrigerated. Keep gingerale or coke at room temperature.
5. Disclaimer: Of course if there is an abnormally high temperature or if it persists more than a day or two, consult a physician.
