Hot Toddy




Due to todays weather, I felt that it was necessary to have this drink to warm our bodies. Keep this drink handy throughout the winter. So enjoy this drink as you warm up, after todays miserable weather.


Drink Ingredients:
  • 4 to 5 whole cloves
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 star anise
  • 1 teaspoon of honey
  • 1/2 a cup of boiling water
  • 1 1/2 oz of brandy preferably Clear Creek
  • Lemon wedge
Drink Preparations:
  • Combine cloves, cinnamon stick, star anise and honey in a heat-proof snifter.
  • Top with boiling water and stir to melt honey.
  • Top with brandy.
  • Squeeze the lemon wedge and drop into the snifter.

  1. I just had this last night at 3:00 am! Kept my girlfriend and I warm while we watched our friends barn burn down! It's ok, it was a planned thing!
