Ginger Hot Toddy

Our friend, Allison Ball sent us her recipe for a ginger hot toddy that will take the chill off of the most brutal winter weather.  She describes it so well, I’m handing the recipe writing over to her.

Allison: “I find the Hot Toddy to be one of those drinks that is so simple in concept that people often skip a recipe altogether, thinking that it’s as straightforward as adding a brown spirit (usually bourbon) to tea. The result is usually lacking balance, and consequently the toddy is overlooked, or dismissed as a mediocre wintertime drink. Here, we skip the tea all together, combining brandy & cognac with lemon juice, Runamok Ginger Root Infused maple syrup, hot water, and a few dashes of bitters to create a balanced, spicy, and addictive cold weather cocktail. I guarantee it will quickly become part of your winter routine.”
