What flavor of meds is it, and what brand?
I know, from experience that somes brands are REALLY gross, and since younger children have different tastes than adults (or even teens) have.
A few that I remember off the top of my head that were REALLY gross?
Benedryl, liquid advil, Robutussin, and a few others.
Try the ice cream again, but say that the cold of it might help his throat/cough. If not that, wait until he falls asleep. It sounds odd, but that's how my parents gave me all my cough medicine, because I'd be coughing in the night and wouldn't want to wake up.
Of course, the funniest times were when I'd cough mid-swallow and spray it all over my dad/mom.
Funny for me, I mean.
Good luck!
