Possibly the active ingredients of the syrup taste disgusting, and unfortunately adding peppermint or chocolate would not disguise that taste? |

Ah back to the days when the worse it tasted the more good it was doing you? 'Owbridges Lung Tonic' the vilest concoction known to man, but after one night of hallucinations it worked every time lol. |

A pleasant linctus that works is called "simple" Available from most chemists. It actually tastes nice and soothes the coughing. |

I believe they do that sort of thing to stop toddlers who happen to get hold of an opened bottle. They will then spit it out because of the taste. (strong medicines could be harmful to small children) :-) |
