We love our Winter Hot Toddies. They’re the perfect drink when you feel the “ick” coming on.

Notes
Everyone is a little different in their taste for liquor. If 1 oz is too much it’s ok to cut it back. If it’s not enough….well then add to your heart’s content. 🙂
If you need it to be a little sweeter, add a little honey or a little more elderberry syrup.
