Ahh the hot toddy, every ‘in denial’ alcoholics dream excuse when they have a cold 🤧

[@fletchersouza8734]

Hello, my name is Fletcher and I'm an in denial alcoholic...

[@Woodshadow]

Alcoholics with colds not in denial just shoot whiskey

[@darthralin]

Ah, good idea. I'm definitely doing that when I have a cold.

[@christofferh1]

Next time, add the emptied vanilla pod to your simmering. Will help you get all the flavor out of it.

[@Eliphas_Leary]

Original northern german recipe for Grog: Rum: necessary sugar, honey, spices like cinnamon, cloves and/or lemon: recommended hot tea: optional

[@kingmazzieri7043]

His facial expression following the first sip is priceless.

[@Gulliolm]

What about a good old Grog? Rum, hot water, sugar ? Would love to see your ideas

[@peter4210]

Real sailors grog was just water mixed with rum, the alcohol content was way lower then an american beer. Just enough to slightly inebriated a sailor so he could still walk the rigging but be more "brave". The ratio was something like 4:1 or 6:1.

[@Gulliolm]

@@solchapeau6343 nope, with rum or arrak

[@Gulliolm]

@@peter4210 thats right

[@windhelmguard5295]

you have to use rum, you can add sugar, you don't need water.

[@Killercreek]

@@peter4210 where are you finding 70%? Most modern rum is 40%, with naval strength being up to 60%. The rums back then were naval strength style. Were you confusing % and proof?

[@Dream146]

Earl grey tea with your hot toddy is a real winners choice imo

[@drew2794]

I made stewed apples, saved the leftover apple cinnamon syrup for hot toddy's, and oh sweet Lord baby Jesus was it good!

[@CocktailsConsoles]

Oohh! Tell me a hot buttered rum is coming! 🥰

[@ascendedvegeta]

I think he already has a recipe for a hot buttered rum 👍

[@ascendedvegeta]

My bad. It was hot buttered rum that he did. Obviously didn't do butterbeer cuz he just uploaded that one

[@Preussenpenner]

1.5 Oz Highland Park 12 3 Oz Frisian Tea 1 tblsp Brown sugar 1 dash Vermouth 2 dashes Ango . 5 Oz Heavy cream Enjoy ;)

[@MeatGuyJ]

My favorite hot toddy recipe involves a really devisive tea. I start mine out with Lapsang Souchong and add in some Irish whiskey, a lemon wheel and some honey. It's not bad.

[@sycophant13]

I love Lapsang Souchong, and the smoke from it would work really well. Definitely recommend folks try that or Russian Caravan (which has some Lapsang in it's blend, but is more subtle)

[@rikkansi]

This idea has made me want to try Lapsang Souchong again.

[@barbaramatthews4735]

Peach brandy, maple syrup, hot black tea, orange with the cloves. Will give a warm delicious variation.

[@EmilDonat]

If you use loose leaf tea instead of tea bags I think the flavour will be even better, love the show ❤️

[@potatocorners]

Agree, this is perfect for the winter!

[@EagleVision1999]

You've given me some great ideas for tomorrow after work. It's gonna be a good day...

[@DonovanPresents]

A Chai Hot Today sounds AMAZING!

[@ericcooke2661]

A basic way to save vanilla pods after use is to stick them in sugar to gave the sugar a subtle vanilla infusion

[@spookerd]

I needed this Tuesday, where were you Tuesday? I was shivering on my couch drinking cold cocktails and cursing my lack of instruction for hot cocktails.

[@jamesblack2820]

The first version you did was most similar to my Scottish fathers Hit Toddy. Swap maple syrup for honey and use a blended scotch. I use his recipe and swap honey with maple syrup and use cloves, a cinnamon stick and a squeeze of lemon

[@devonmiller636]

Hot toddy with echinacea tea, lemon, honey, and bourbon is excellent when you have a cold. Helps soothe a sore throat and open up the sinuses!

[@devingendron2287]

What I grew up with as a toddy (well, what my mother drank in winter and I had a virgin version of, and which I now think of as a toddy) used spiced Martinelli’s cider as both base and sweetener (spiced with all spice, cloves, cinnamon and sometimes orange peel), with bourbon or rye as the liquor and a lemon slice.

[@menamgamg]

Made one with cognac, brown sugar saffron syrup and lime :D love it!

[@oliverpls]

You can always coarsely slice (or finally powder) the scraped vanilla pod and put it in a jar of sugar. Or leave it whole and put it in a bottle of vodka for some vanilla flavoured vodka!

[@believe2000]

came to say this, almost word for word. Thanks Ollie

[@triplecap4307]

Blimey they all look awesome......

[@dhayaneshvelusamy2621]

I used Hot tea made with with Palm sugar, cardamom, cinnamon stick, dried ginger root, Darjeeling tea. :) I adjusted the honey accordingly. yummy :)

[@LargeDirtyChai]

HONEY THICC

[@nachoorvananos8656]

Hey! Love your videos I have try aa lot of your cocktails and they are awesome. We have a chili liqueur here in Mexico and I made an all fashioned with it instead of bourbon, can you make it and tell us what you think, I think it’s awesome

[@smwillia]

Your clove-lemon zest strip garnish looks like a TNG era Starfleet admiral rank bar.

[@volkamar]

Recently made a "hot toddy" type drink using a tea spoon of demarara sugar, hot water, a measure of dom benedictine, 1/4 tea spoon of cinnamon powder, garnished with a lemon wheel floated in the top. And that worked really well

[@connosaurus]

In my frugal college days, my friends and I discovered the excellent combination of Chai & Rye. Give it a go!

[@connosaurus]

P.S. We served it cold

[@laughingsharpie]

Awesome

[@JMacsAmateurKitchen]

Have you picked up the Aviary cocktail holiday book yet!? I’ve made their hot toddy 4 times this year already... sooooo good!!!!

[@obi-wancranobi9631]

I was expecting a Babish crossover for the vanilla bean since you said youd never done it before...Kinda sad it didnt happen but my head cannon shall live on!

[@sabinfigaro7334]

They do I forget on what...it's just for a minute for Twin peaks egg foam.

[@OlRooster69]

Fun fact you can store the whole vanilla pods in a jar full of sugar so you can have vanilla sugar and it keeps the pods longer as well.

[@azraelf.6287]

For toddy #2, try pouring your whiskey from the bottle to your measuring cup then the glass. It will get the rest of the honey out of the cup without the finger swipe.

[@denisetymensky8922]

Thank you so much for the recipe! My fella is loving this and feels it has made his cold more tolerable. 😉

[@ettaphil9586]

Fella! 😀 Are you English, Australian?

[@denisetymensky8922]

[@I_NeedCoffee]

Take the remaining vanilla husks and put them in a jar. Add something like a white rum and let sit for at least a week stirring around daily. You now have your own vanilla extract. For larger batches you can buy b grade split vanilla beans for not too much money. 10 will make a 750s worth of extract.

[@juandiegoprado]

Yo what a coincidence I just had a costumer order that two days ago! First time anyone orders that too.

[@peter4210]

Twinnings earl gray, mixed with a shot of a basic Jameson whiskey. If i could describe the taste it would be like good tasting alcoholic oranges. If you wana mix it with sugars and lemon i would recommend switching to a black tea

[@TheGeekChef]

Please do Venture Bros Docktails, such as Red mogo cooler. Tall glass grenadine, tomato juice and a jigger of rum. Doctails are a REAL challenge.

[@Rufus555]

I read "3 Delicious Hot Daddy Recipes" and was very disappointed.

[@bradleytrim7280]

My hot toddy recipe is similar to your second once, but I instead use Earl Grey tea with a bit of lemon juice: + Simmer 5 oz of water, 1 Earl Grey tea bag, juice from half of a lemon, and one cinnamon stick + Transfer mix to glass (including the cinnamon stick) and mix in 3/4 oz of honey (or sweeten to your liking) + Finish with 2 oz of bourbon (I like Buffalo Trace), express a lemon peel and toss it in, and then stir Edit: I add the bourbon last as I like my alcohol and don't want any to boil off in the process.

[@fleurdelispens]

my personal favorite toddy recipe is reposado mezcal, hibiscus tea, lime juice, and agave nectar

[@robinlerch4795]

Nice

[@Videohead-eq5cy]

I'm sorry, I kept hearing 'hot thotties' and I couldn't stop laughing

[@davidmelgar1197]

That's just when you make a hot toddy shirtless.

This show is what happens when Binging with Babish and How to Drink perform the fusion dance.

[@katrostorm3075]

I love that smoking contraption 💨💨🥃👌 What exactly is that?

[@myguitardidyermom212]

you should do a "Hot Scotchie", which is scotch (or bourbon, I'm not judging) and some fresh, warm wort, the liquid you get from mashing the grain during the beer brewing process Tastes a bit like whole grains and is *very* sweet and sugary.

[@Granger744]

I love michters

[@benderbendingrofriguez3300]

can you make the "wake up juice" from Back to the future part 3? Oh,or perhaps the Cow Boy cocktail,from Cowboy Bebop,which is mostly Bourbon and Milk (Jupiter Jazz ).

[@AnOrbitalCat]

Hot tip: rinse the honey out with the tea

[@wizzerd229]

Could you make a hot toddy with a good dark rum?

[@personthatguy4172]

My parents gave me this when I was a kid if I was sick

[@JiMala_BC]

where did you get that adorable teapot??????

[@elsquisheeone]

I get toddy body even when I'm not sick

[@SRDFTM]

i love your channel. Just want you to know :)

[@ReDJstone]

This reminds me about that one time i had a glass of watermelon juice at a restaurant. I was curious about how it would taste. It was WAYYYY too sweet. I didnt know anything about drinks at all. But i remembered that when i entered the restaurant, i saw a bowl of fruit. Mostly citrics. That gave me the same idea that you had in the video ( 1:48 ) I wasn’t able to drink more than a little sip of the drink at a time, until i asked for a lemon and added some of its juice to the drink. It didn’t make the flavor better, it was still very sweet. But at least i was able to drink some more of it now that it was more “balanced”. 2/10 Would not drink again, though. That was way too much sweetness for me.

[@Huwberts_Emporium]

The binging with babish of drinks.

[@Sawer]

Please Please do a video with How To Drink. Your seriousness and his total lack of that could be really fun to watch :)

[@xjAlbert]

No bar in Manhattan has ever made me such a nice Hot Toddy as yours!

[@Raphmagician]

Question, what is the life span of angostura bitters before it goes bad? if it ever goes bad... thx

[@Wynner3]

I was going to ask a question about the drink, but now I'm more interested in how he grooms his beard and styles his hair.

[@johngriffon2118]

Hot Toddys for when im cold and when im nursing a cold. Earl Grey Tea, Honey, Lemon juice, and Tullamore Dew.

[@BoozyMermaidCocktailAcademy]

I like the applewood smoked Brandy variation. It’s hitting 30’s now in South Carolina and I bartend outdoors....so may have to try this later. Toddy Body...good one. Great video. Look forward to your Boozy Hot Chocolate- I’ll be doing several variations of those, ha.

[@sniperfox8672]

I do have one and its a little cheaper and well easier in a way that I use to help me sleep on some nights. A cup of honey vanilla chamomile that you can get at Wal-Mart for like 2.34 or something some honey to sweeten to you taste and I use 1 to 1.5oz of honey whiskey namely Evan Williams honey that I can get at a store in town for a little over 10 bucks

[@gingerbead7919]

I fully expect this to be ignored, but to make a request. Could you give us a chilled contact for those of us who live in Australia? Stuff is real hot over here.

[@splashboy1511]

It would probably be good with a honey mead
