Smokin’ Hot Toddy

 

The Hot Toddy is a classic warm winter cocktail comprised of water, whiskey, honey, lemon, and spices.  It is a soothing concoction that claims to relieve cold symptoms and can lull one off into a deep slumber.  Today we share with you a delightful smoky variation of the cocktail made with Islay Scotch and Earl Grey Tea.  The Single Malts of Islay have a naturally smokiness, and when mixed with the citrusy Earl Grey the two accentuate each other most pleasantly.  For the best results everything needs to be pre-warmed, and the Earl Grey should be as hot as possible when added to the other ingredients.

 

Smokin’ Hot Toddy

In a pre-warmed, tempered glass mug add:

  • 1 ½ Teaspoons of Honey
  • 1 Tablespoon of Boiling Hot Water

Stir to thin the honey then add:

  • 1 ½ Ounces Laphroaig Single Malt Scotch (Any Smoky Islay will do)
  • ½ Ounce Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 6 Ounces of Piping Hot Pre-Steeped Earl Grey Tea

Stir to combine ingredients.  Drink as hot as possible for the best results.
