Here's the recipe I use

4 ounces of fresh horehound leaves
½ tsp crushed aniseed,
3 crushed cardamon seed
2 ½ c of water, simmer this for 20 minutes then strain

dissolve 2 c of sugar
1 ½ c of brown sugar in the tea liquid
Boil until reaches hard crack stage pour into oiled try.
score when partially cooled.

Hope this helps.

Try using a plastic small cube ice tray to make drops. Just spray with PAM, and pour in horehound when cooked. When cool, you can twist and pop them right out! I coat mine with sugar I run through a coffee grinder. Not powdered, just finer.
