The Cardi B Hot Toddy
Introduction:
Winter time and and the occasional cold begets hot drinks, honey, tea, and of course, bourbon. I’ve always enjoyed my hot toddy’s with tea, but never found the right mix, until now. I’ve played with a few spices and found that cardamom mixes perfectly with bourbon, honey, and lemon.
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ – 2 oz. bourbon
- ½ lemon
- tbsp honey
- tea mix
- 5 cardamom seeds
- 1 anise
- pinch of lemongrass
Garnish
- Lemon
Preparation:
I lightly crush the seeds and anise prior to bagging it. Let tea seep in hot water for about 5 minutes. Add rest of ingredients and feel comfortable that you’re drinking booze to either help warm you up or to get over your cold.
Notes:
Don’t really have any notes nor iterations to this drink. I really enjoy this hot toddy version, and wouldn’t change anything about it.
