On Episode 2 season 2 of the And A Beard We Go Podcast, Hoover fixed up a cold weather, warm belly drink classic, the Hot Toddy.
This Hot Toddy was pretty traditional, the only variance we did was instead of using Honey, Hoover used Agave Nectar.
Like most of our drinks, theres really no correct proportion, at least to us. You’ll need a couple of ingredients though.
You’ll need:
A tempered glass – A glass heated with hot water until the whole glass is warm, pour out the water
Your favorite whiskey
Hot water
Angostura Bitters
Sliced lemons
Cloves
Cinnamon sticks
Honey or Agave Nectar
1 – Temper your glass
2 – Pour in a “shot” of whiskey
3 – Blast a couple shots for Bitters
4 – Slice a lemon and poke 3-5 cloves into the lemon cells
5 – squirt some honey or Agave Nectar into the glass, not too much though…
6 – a quick squirt of lemon juice
7 – drop in a cinnamon stick
8 – fill the rest of your glass with hot water
9 – stir, drink & repeat
Enjoy!
