Ok, I have to set the stage 1st. It is nearly 2 am, twissis had a nap earlier & now she is awake & restless. Time for a cup of tea? Nah, time for a TEA TODDY! I used Melrose Deluxe tea & confess I never got to the part where I had to decide about the whiskey. It surprised me how good just the tea & Bailey's was, but the whiskey will get a chance to shine next time. I hope I will be restless again tomorrow nite or maybe I will just plan for it. Nite Calee, I am pretty sure I can sleep now.

    I used a decafe green tea. When making I didn`t think the whiskey would be needed but in tasting without it I decided to add it and that did give it that little extra kick that it does need. Making it a very nice comforting cup of tea. Thanks calee and Sweet Dreams!

    Very nice! I tried it first with decaf lipton brown tea and it was good. Then I tried it with decaf earl grey and it was fantastic! I liked the splash of whiskey in it. I also added some Splenda as I like things sweet. Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders.

    I had just made some Earl Gray tea when I started browsing the new recipes. I had to try this. I love the tea and Baileys but I can't see that the whiskey is an improvement. Personal taste I'm sure. I would not have thought of putting Baileys in tea, I already had some Splenda in my tea and it wasn't too sweet that way. I'll be mixing the two again.

    Sorry for the rating. It was too sweet. I added more tea. Then it was ok. Next time I'll try with only 1/2 ounce of Baileys. The whiskey is a great addition. Thanks Calee

    Nice twist on the usual toddy. I liked this subtle combo of the hot bergamot tea, smooth & creamy Bailey's and the slight kick of Jack Daniels whiskey. Thanks for sharing, Calee.

    Oh, it does grow on you. My immediate response was..."diluted Bailey's" and I thought I'd stick to my normal tea toddy (tea, lemon, honey and a splash of bourbon or scotch) and alternate it with sips of straight Bailey's. But by the time I had sipped half of the drink, I was a convert. And there are so delightfully many kinds of tea to try in combination with the many types of whisky... Oh yes.
