Is this correct?: "Just the mention of broccoli makes me want to throw up."

Yes.

Thanks for answering. Can we also say, "Something makes me throw up" or do we use 'want' in such sentence? How do we differentiate?

Certainly. That's when you actually vomit. Adding the part with "want" just means you feel that you're going to vomit but you don't.

Thanks for answering. So can I say, "Just the mention of broccoli makes me to throw up"?

No. It's fine without 'to'.
