Both Kris and I have been sick with a nasty flu and it has definitely over stayed its welcome.
I had never even heard about a Hot Toddy until my husband and I were first dating and his dad offered me a Hot Toddy to ease a cold.. now its my go to drink when I am sick. The benefits of honey and lemon are thought to heal you while the Brandy numbs you.
Basic Hot Toddy Recipe
- Put 2-3 Tbl spoons of honey into a mug
- Add hot water
- Mix in a shot glass of Brandy
- Squeeze lemon juice from a quarter of a lemon
- Stir
- Enjoy hot!
There are many variations of a Hot Toddy (even different names). Some omit lemons, add in cinnamon, use different liquors such as whiskey or rum, or add a tea bag.
