Recommend me a sucky sweet to keep my dry throat moist.

[PeteXXX]

I don't usually do pharmaceuticals, but want recommendations for the best/nicet way to keep my dry throat moist during my present bout of Lesser Man Flu.
I'm partial to a sucking Sherbert Lemon, but find that a Fisherman's Friend is a bit too strong...
I don't like those square Opal Fruit kind of sweets, preferring a boiled sweet.

Jakemans are good and available in a variety of flavours / potencies to suit most tastes.

Wilko sell them, as do Tesco.

What he said /\ Jakemans. There’s nothing better.

I've heard of them but never tried them!
Sounds hopeful

Get a pack of cherry ones and a pack of menthol (I think, they're in a black bag).

I must have tried the full range at some point, but the black ones are my default choice.

Just reminded me to get some more for the car, always used to having a pack of cherry and black ones in the door pocket.

A pebble under the tongue keeps the mouth moist. Cheap too.
