Hot Toddies

Hey Sweet Thangs, how's that cold and flu season treatin' you? Well, I'm here to make it all better. Or at least get you drunk enough that you don't care. (And seriously, if you're not into spirits, you can omit them and still reap the benefits.) If you find yourself sick this cold and flu season, don't let yourself suffer longer than you have to. Try the Southern Hot Toddy:

Southern Hot Toddy Recipe

1 1/2 oz Wild Turkey American Honey Bourbon Liqueur
1/4 oz lemon juice
1 cinnamon stick
1 lemon slice
3-4 whole cloves
pinch of nutmeg (optional)
4 oz hot water


Pour the Wild Turkey and lemon juice into a coffee mug. Spear the cloves into the rind of lemon slice and drop into mixture followed by the cinnamon stick and nutmeg. Pour the hot water over the spices and allow the drink to steep for a few minutes.

If you're not using the Wild Turkey Honey Bourbon, add a good heaping tablespoonful honey to the mixture. Enjoy! (And feel better, darlin'.)
