They are. Saved me in Japan, because all similar Japanese drops are not half as good (both in taste and effect).
Edit: actually that was while I lived there for 2.5 years. On a later trip a local friend recommended a Japanese alternative that worked just as well – apparently my mistake was to look in pharmacies rather than kiosks.
Wait, you didn’t know?
Isn’t this one of the things that always get’s a mention when you tell someone that you’re Swiss? “Ah, you’re Swiss: cheese, chocolate, knives and Riccola, right?” or something similar.
I feel like it’s available in most countries. Like Lindt and Rolex 😁

**MODS!**
[Here’s](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuhm2a41x5urxW6xfkOiBjh-oEoW4b5Jk) a playlist of all foreign language Ricola ads, where some poor voice actor has to shout *Chrüüterchraft!*. It’s hilarious.
Whenever I’m in the US I buy Ricola there because it’s cheaper than here. Lol
