Ingredients
Scale
- 45 ml Bourbon
- 15 ml Honey
- 15 ml Lemon Juice
- 120 ml Hot Water
- 1 Cinnamon Stick
Instructions
- Warm your mug briefly by rinsing it with hot water – it helps keep the toddy warmer for longer.
- Add honey and lemon juice directly to the mug, then pour in the hot water. Stir slowly until the honey fully dissolves and the aroma rises gently.
- Pour in the bourbon and place the cinnamon stick into the mug to steep for a minute or two, infusing that warm spice note.
- Give a soft final stir before garnishing with a fresh lemon wheel for a bright touch.
- Sip slowly and let the smooth bourbon warmth and cinnamon spice balance the tart citrus beautifully.
- Optional: Add a few drops of Angostura bitters for depth or replace lemon with orange for a mellow, sweeter variation.
