FAQs:
Can I use tea instead of water?
Absolutely! Many people enjoy adding a tea bag (like chamomile or black tea) to the hot water for added flavor.
Is it true that Hot Toddies can cure a cold?
While a Hot Toddy can't "cure" a cold, the warmth, honey, and lemon can soothe a sore throat and provide comfort.
Can I make a non-alcoholic version?
Sure! Simply skip the whiskey and use tea or hot water, honey, lemon, and spices.
Why is it called a "hot toddy"?
The origin of the name is debated, but one theory suggests it came from "toddy," a drink in India made from the fermented sap of palm trees.
