Hot Toddy
Yield: 1 drink
This Hot Toddy is the perfect winter drink! It’s warm and cozy with a hint of earthy honey and spicy ginger. Enjoy this drink as is or with a splash of good bourbon for an extra kick.
Ingredients
- ½ cup boiling water
- 2 teaspoons honey or to taste
- 3 ¼” thick slices fresh ginger, peeled
- 1½ ounces good quality bourbon whiskey
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Lemon wheel and cinnamon stick for garnish
Instructions
- Add the boiling water, honey, and ginger to a mug. Stir until the honey is dissolved and then set it aside to steep for 10 minutes. I recommend placing a small saucer upside-down on top of the mug to keep the heat in while steeping.
- Add the bourbon and lemon juice and stir to combine. Remove the sliced ginger if desired (I just leave it in) and garnish with a lemon wheel and cinnamon stick.
- The hot toddy should be a nice warm drinking temperature at this point, but you can always warm it up for 15 seconds in the microwave if desired.
