Just what the doctor ordered!

wine wednesday doctor cure all

Can I just tell y’all how crappy I feel?!?!  There is nothing worse than getting a Summer cold or a scratchy throat when it is 900 million trillion degrees outside!  Since I like to take a more “natural” approach to how I get rid of a scratchy throat, I figured what better than a good ol’ fashioned hot toddy!

There are a million and 1 recipes out there for a hot toddy.  It has been 20 years and I STILL remember the one my big brother made for me when I went to visit him in Atlanta during Spring Break.  But since he is getting up in age (46…LOL) he couldn’t recall the ingredients that went into making the BEST EFFIN hot toddy of all time!

Here is a simple and effective way to get rid of that scratchy throat:

  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 3/4 glass tea
  • 2 shots brandy
  • 1 slice lemon
Brew a nice glass of tea (I love black tea for this) and fill a tall glass 3/4 full.  Mix in honey, brandy shots and slice of lemon.  Sip and enjoy!
Now I know this post have absolutely NOTHING to do with wine, but it’s my blog and I can do whatever I want…hahaha!!!  What is your favorite hot toddy recipe?  Please share!  And a shoutout to my blog-friend for sharing the picture on my Facebook page!  Be sure to check out Efie at La Lynn’s.
