Apple Cider Hot Toddy
Locke + Co. Apple Cider Hot Toddy
Warm and cozy, this Apple Cider Hot Toddy is perfect for sipping on my the fire this holiday season. You can use hard apple cider for a strong treat!
Ingredients
- 2 oz Locke + Co. Aspen Aged Rye
- 4 oz apple cider
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 teaspoon honey
- 1 cinnamon stick
Preparation
- Combine the apple cider, lemon juice, honey, and cinnamon stick in a small saucepan.
- Bring to a boil over medium-low heat, then reduce heat and simmer for about five minutes.
- Remove from heat, stir in the whiskey, and serve immediately.
Notes
Look for unfiltered apple cider if you can find it. It has a lot more apple-tastic flavor to it!
To make this for a large crowd, use the following measurements: 1/5 bottle of whiskey, 1/2 gallon of apple cider, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2/3 cup of honey, and 4 cinnamon sticks. Makes 16 drinks. Keep simmering on the stove with a ladle and mugs nearby, or pour all into a slow cooker, and let cook on high for two hours before serving.
