Hot Toddy Rum Drink Recipe
A roaring fire and drifting snow make great accompaniments for this classic warming brew. If neither of those is available, a pair of warm
socks—or a handful of good friends—will work just fine.
Ingredients
| 2 | ounces | rum |
| 1 | tablespoon | honey |
| 1 | tablespoon | freshly squeezed lemon juice |
| 1/8 | teaspoon | ground cinnamon |
| 1/2 | cup | boiling water |
| 3 | whole cloves | |
| 1 | slice | lemon |
| ~ | ground nutmeg |
Directions
1. Pour the rum, honey, lemon juice, and cinnamon into a heat-resistant mug.
2. Pour in the boiling water and stir well.
3. Fasten the cloves to the peel of the lemon slice and drop it in. (This prevents you from accidentally swallowing the spices!)
4. Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve.
Preparation Time:
Several minutes.
