Hot Toddy Round Up

Anyone familiar with the history of a hot toddy knows this drink is perfect for feeling all warm and toasty, as it is essentially a liquor-infused tea. While something like a spiked St. Patrick’s Day tea shares many similarities with that of a hot toddy and is great for a festive spring day, winter is the perfect time to warm up your bones with boozy beverages bursting with seasonal spices.

Hot toddies have also been used as a remedy for the common cold since the 1800s. This means that when it starts getting chilly outside, knowing how to make a hot toddy is a great bit of wisdom for a delicious bit of medicine.
