Lemony Hot Toddy Recipe #377130
When it's cold outside, and you need something warm
35 min | 5 min prep
SERVES 10
- 3 sticks cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon whole cloves
- 1 whole nutmeg or 1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
- 10 lemons
- 1/2 cup turbinado sugar or honey (more to taste)
- 2 quarts water
- Put the water, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and sugar into a saucepan to boil.
- Cut the skin away from the pith (the bitter white part) from two lemons (more if they're small). Cut skin into strips and add it to saucepan.
- When the pot comes to a boil, turn it down to a simmer, and let it simmer for at least 15 minutes.
- Prepare the serving cups. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lemon (or more to taste) into each coffee mug that you're serving. If they want an "adult" toddy, put a shot of rum or bourbon into each cup too! Add a cinnamon stick and a slice of lemon.
- When the toddy base is good and hot, pour it into the cups and serve!
