Ricola Cherry Menthol Oral Anesthetic Drops
What it is
These are small, hard candies designed to provide temporary relief from minor mouth and throat irritations. They contain menthol, a cooling agent, and are flavored with cherry. The candies are individually wrapped for convenience and hygiene. They are intended for soothing discomfort and are not a medicine for treating illness.
How people cook with it
People often reach for these when experiencing a scratchy throat or minor mouth soreness. They can offer a pleasant, cooling sensation.
- Soothe a scratchy throat

To use, simply place one drop in your mouth and allow it to dissolve slowly. Do not chew the drop. It is designed to melt gradually, releasing its soothing ingredients. Avoid consuming more than the recommended amount, as excessive use may lead to numbness or other sensations. They are best used when you feel the need for temporary relief from minor irritations.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike regular hard candies, these drops contain menthol for its cooling and numbing properties. The cherry flavor provides a distinct taste that is different from other menthol-based lozenges, offering a fruitier option.
Who it is for
Individuals seeking temporary relief from minor oral discomfort or a cooling sensation may use these drops.
How to keep the rest
Store the remaining drops in their original packaging in a cool, dry place. Ensure the wrapper is sealed to maintain freshness and prevent the candies from sticking together. Keep them away from direct sunlight and moisture.
