hot toddy
Whiskey, honey, warmth
A hot toddy is a warm alcoholic drink typically made with whiskey, honey, lemon, and hot water, often with spices like cinnamon or cloves.
It's traditionally consumed as a cold remedy or winter warmer: I made myself a hot toddy when I felt a sore throat coming on.
The drink dates to the 18th century and remains popular in cold weather.
