Throat lozenges

I usually use the orange strepsils as they don't have menthol in them (bleuch!) and they work reasonably well, but ds1 (7) doesn't like them. Any recommendations for throat lozenges that work and taste ok for him? TIA.

Oops, just discovered they do have menthol in them Blush. They don't taste of it!

Merocet with honey are nice, don't have menthol in them. Boots and other pharmacies, I think even Tesco pharmacy sells them.

Thanks :) - I couldn't see them in Boots or Sainsburys but ds1 seems happy enough with the Halls soothers that I got him (though I suspect they're not really doing much for his sore throat).
