Hot Toddy With Rum (One That Doesn't Taste Like Cough Syrup)

Описание: Hot Toddy's have a bad reputation of tasting like boozy cough syrup and I'm telling you, we can do WAY BETTER than that. This warm and soothing cocktail isn't just for flu season anymore. This one actually tastes good enough to drink for enjoyment, and you'll only need three little ingredients to take them to the next level.

The first thing we'll do is make a traditional #hottoddy with #rum, in its most basic form. If you want to use #whiskey, go right ahead, but a good, spiced rum really works well in this #cocktail. THEN, we're going to make one that doesn't taste like cough syrup, with VERY little extra effort.

Here's how you make it:
Heat up 3/4 cup of water in the microwave. I use a microwave-safe pitcher but you could heat your water on a saucepan on the stovetop or in a kettle if needed.
Now, you'll add rum or whiskey to the glass (1 to 2 ounces), followed by a tablespoon of honey, and 1 to 2 teaspoons of lemon juice.
Stir and you've got your vitamin C for immune support, honey to soothe your throat, and alcohol to numb it.

The problem is, it really doesn't taste that good.

How to make the BEST hot toddy with rum!
Heat up your water, but this time, we're just going to drop in a few (about 3) whole cloves and 1 star anise.
Next, add the rum, lemon juice, and honey just like before, but this time, we're also going to add a little bit of freshly squeezed orange -- about 1 tablespoon will do!
Lastly, to serve, I like to add a cinnamon stick to the glass!

What makes THIS hot toddy different than your average toddy?
1. Those warm and cozy spices that do a quick steep in the water while it's heating up are going to add a TON of flavor to this cocktail.
2. That orange is going to add a little more sweetness and it works so well with the flavor of those spices.
3. The cinnamon stick! Garnishing with a cinnamon stick gives you a lovely waft of cinnamon every time you bring the glass to your mouth. If you don't have cinnamon sticks, a pinch of cinnamon will also work.
