How to make a hot toddy


hot toddy, originally uploaded by deepwarren.

I've come down with a cold/flu couresty of DrP. I haven't take a day off work yet - not for any good reason i might add. But it's wednesday and I feel like a hot drink. So I thought the hot toddy might be the answer, and I've never really tried it.

According to the wiki a hot toddy is a cup of tea, with a healthy dose of lemon, honey and whiskey (or some variation of the above).

My recipe was to take a weak(ish) cup of tea (earl grey), plus half a lemon squeezed by hand.
Add 1 teaspoon of proper honey (has to be cold pressed pure honey - extra points for knowing the bees).
Add whiskey to taste..

It was surprising good.
