Turn Unpalatable Medicine into a Delicious Dessert [Health]

Although pharmaceutical companies try to make their products at least mildly palatable, you'll probably never love the taste of medicine. Instructables user bajablue wasn't willing to give up, however, and figured out a recipe for a tasty, Nyquil-based smoothie. What's inside? Here's the recipe:

• 1 tablespoon / dose cup of Nyquil
• 1 piece spearmint Candy
• 2 tablespoons of water
• Vanilla ice cream
• Cool Whip frozen topping
• Chocolate sauce
• 1 strawberry

You make it by melting the spearmint candy in water in the microwave, mixing it with the Nyquil, chilling the mixture in the freezer, and then blending it with the vanilla ice cream. The Cool Whip, strawberry, and chocolate sauce serve as toppings. If you or someone you know is particularly adverse to the taste of medicine, or you have a kid that simply won't take it, this is certainly a more pleasant alternative.

Depending on the medicine flavor, there are probably plenty of options for alternative recipes. Got a great medicine-based dessert of your own? Share it in the comments.
