JINGLE JINGLE- Hot Toddy Recipe (For those 21+)



I have been really into mixing drinking lately. It is amazing to see how different flavors incorporate together to make delicious things. Mixing drinks is a great way to explore without the hassle and mess of cooking and baking. Here is another delicious holiday drink that is perfect for those days where you want to cuddle up by a nice fire. This isn't your traditional hot toddy but it is just as delicious or maybe even more! 

What You Will Need: 2-3 servings

2 tablespoons of dark Agave Nectar Syrup (DO NOT GET LIGHT)

1 cup of hot water

1 tsp of orange liquor 

6 Tablespoons of your favorite Bourbon (For this recipe I recommend Jim Bean but any type will do, this isn't one of those drinks where you need to splurge.)

2 cinnamon sticks

1 tsp of Nutmeg

2 long peel of mayar lemon (I like the flavor of the mayar lemon but go ahead and use what you have)

2 long peel of orange (You can use whatever type of orange you like)

How to Make:

In a large cup or bowl mix your agave nectar syrup into hot water until it completely dissolves. Then mix in the orange liquor and nutmeg (you can leave this out if you don't like nutmeg). Next get two mini mugs and divide your bourbon (3 tablespoons per mug) and top each mug with your hot water mixture. Garnish each mug with a lemon and orange peel. Top it with a cinnamon stick and enjoy!!!
