Hot Toddy
2011 November 6
I’m not sure how much of the effect of a hot toddy is placebo, and how much is real, but for me this drink certainly sooths the symptoms of a cold.
I use Glenmorangie for the whisky, although I’m sure you’ll have your favourite tipple.
Here’s the ingredients I use, and the method:
a measure of whiskey
1 tsp honey
lemon slice and juice to taste
half a cinnamon stick
2-3 cloves
a splash of hot water
Put the whiskey and honey in the glass or mug, and add the hot water. Add the lemon slice and if you like the juice of half a lemon, and stir. Add the cloves and cinnamon stick, stir some more and enjoy.
