With the cold of winter here in full force, now is a great time for enjoying cozy warm drinks. And there’s perhaps no warm drink more iconic than the classic Hot Toddy. This simple combination of whisky, hot water, honey, and lemon juice is a favorite go-to when someone is feeling under the weather, but it’s great even if you’re just a bit chilly as well.
You can vary the recipe for your Hot Toddies too, to enjoy seasonal flavors like maple syrup, ginger, or even tea. The brand Wyoming Whiskey has shared three recipe ideas to help you get creative with your Hot Toddies at this time of year and to incorporate different flavors to highlight the notes and nuances of your whiskies.
