Answer

When a baby is experiencing cough symptoms, sugar snow pear can be considered as a method of traditional Chinese medicine. Here are the basic steps to make sugar snow pear:

  1. Select fresh, ripe, and undamaged pears, wash them clean, and peel and core them.
  2. Cut the pears into small pieces and place them in a pot.
  3. Add an appropriate amount of water, enough to completely cover the pears.
  4. Add sugar to the pot according to the baby’s taste preference.
  5. Turn on the heat and bring to a boil, then reduce to a low flame and simmer until the pears become soft.

In addition, the baby’s diet should be light, avoiding excessive sugar and irritating foods, drinking plenty of water, and maintaining moderate indoor humidity to help the baby relieve coughing.
