I had a hot toddy this evening at Shelly’s Yard in SOHO. Like most mixed beverages there isn’t exactly a right or wrong way to do things…just some general guidelines. Unfortunately this bartender took the cheapest way out. It was basically hot lemon water with some cloves and cheap whiskey.
I had slightly higher expectations as I had been looking into making one at home and the recipe I was going to go with involved tea, honey, and rum. I think I’ll still have to try this recipe before I decide I never need to have another hot toddy again…but if it tastes like the one I had tonight…that one will def be the last!
How was your hot toddy day?

EWWW I never knew what was in a Hot Toddy before, but it sounds not very appetizing. At least not the one that guy made! I enjoyed a delish peppermint hot chocolate! Here in NC I’ve decided that this rainy day is HOCHO DAY!
