A hot toddy is a delicious drink made with honey, lemon, hot water, and the spirit of your choice (usually something brown like whiskey, brandy, or rum). It’s the perfect way to warm up on a cold winter day, and a few sips can also relieve cold or flu symptoms! Just keep in mind that alcohol should not be combined with cold medication whether it’s prescription or over the counter so if you’re going to take any meds lay off the hooch! A nice hot cup of tea with lemon and honey can do the trick.

I’m a strong proponent of hot toddies. They keep me warm in winter and help me to sleep like a baby (with and without alcohol!) Check out some of my favorite recipes below.
