HOREHOUND CANDY FOR COUGHS

Horehound Candy
(I liked this as a kid, and the real homemade art of making it has been lost. It’s made of an herb that was used for coughs in the old days). Not to mention the fact you can sub another herb or herbs here. How about sesame seeds and change the sugar, just keep the same ratio OR make it stronger i.e.? And so forth...
Ingredients;
1 ounce dried horehound
1 ¾ pounds brown sugar (adjust to Agave, Xylitol i.e.)
1 ½ cup water
Boil horehound and water for ½ hour. Strain it and add 3 ½ pounds of brown sugar. Boil until hardball stage. Pour onto a greased plate. When cool, cut into small pieces.
