I hear you on those tiki drinks Greg, I don't remember much of my bucks night after I visited a tiki bar and had two drinks that are legally okay for one person to drink and one that they can only legally sell if two people collect it... I had visited one bar before that where at least three people bought me a pint of beer, I supposedly visited at least three more bars that night and ended up dancing at a club where my friend who was a bouncer there got me free drinks until I got kicked out for being too drunk... Or so I'm told...

Growing up in Scotland and this being a common drink at New Years (even for kids older than 5), I have to point out that traditionally we used and still use honey, not syrup. Of course it may come down to preference, but the mix of a proper Scottish heather honey mixed in with the hot water and whiskey gives a taste that can never be forgotten, guaranteed peaceful sleep :D I know some of you prefer to use tea as opposed to hot water, tea was an English thing however, we Scots were not afforded such luxuries.. Apart from the worlds best whiskey of course ;)

Remove the teabag after it's dark enough for you, then drink.

I like a spiced Hot Toddie with brandy. I typically stud a few cloves around a lemon wheel, press out the juice, and maybe add a cinnamon stick. A bit of simple syrup, a dose of brandy, then very hot water. It's so nice. edit: I'd also suggest one of my favorite winter drinks, the Snowshoe. It is super simple: (roughly) half and half brandy or bourbon and mint schnapps, over ice, stirred of course. I have two favorite cheap-o brandies, one which seems to work great with spice like apple cider, and one that does well with things like mint and chocolate. Adjust the ratio to your own taste. I have not had a Snowshoe with a bourbon or with good old Jack Daniels that was bad, so it seems a safer bet.

My old man taught me to make these when I was sick, especially if it involved a sore throat. Although his recipe was a little different than yours, it had the same basic ingredients. Whiskey, a sweetener (honey in our case), hot water, and citrus (lemon juice rather than zest). I'm not a huge whiskey drinker, but I always keep a bottle on hand in case I need to make a Hot Toddy :) Awesome video!!! It brought back some great memories and it was fun to see someone else enjoy the drink too :)

That's a nice goose-neck kettle, Greg. Excuse me while I grab mine for the coffee-makin'. More relevant to the topic at hand, I often use the toddy as a sore throat remedy, with half an ounce of lemon juice and a healthy dollop of honey. The honey and lemon sooth while the whiskey deadens the pain of terrible, terrible choices. And then there all the spices. Sometimes I float a lovely star anise pod, sometimes a couple of whole cloves, and stir with a cinnamon stick. Still, I believe I'll be giving your recipe a shot, soon. For one, it's an excuse to get some Monkey Shoulder, of which I have heard much. I usually go with a bourbon or rye, depending on how spicy I'm feeling. Cheers, good sir. To your health.

I only found out recently that this beverage had an alcoholic origin. The version I grew up with was only served as a remedy for sore throats and colds. It consisted of hot black tea, lemon juice and honey. It was delicious. Conversely, my great-grandparents gave their kids shots of whiskey with a thick layer of freshly cracked black peppercorns on top for the same. After watching this video, I'm thinking I should try mixing the two. Thanks for the inspiration, great video as always.

My grandma always used to make me a hot toddy if i was sick, but hers was earl grey tea, rye, honey and lemon. Which honestly has become one of my favourite winter drinks

Gonna be honest, I found the hot toddy looking through recipes to use tea in, so I always just thought that was the correct version. Plus, the odd occasion that I'd gotten one at a bar or restaurant, it was a tea hot toddy, too. Suffice to say, it's quite the surprise to me that it's normally just hot water! Should probably say my piece about how I make it... any good tea will do, even herbal ones (chamomile if you want to incapacitate yourself in a hurry) but an odd one strikes out as best-the "Magical Girl Venus" Rooibos tea blend from The Dragon's Treasure, weeby as it is, goes extremely well with whiskey. As for whiskeys, the lazy way is just to use a honey whiskey (I tend to like Jack Daniels's best), but I'll add the honey separate if I want to use a better whiskey. I tend to also add a bit more sweetness even after that, usually to taste, and a cinnamon stick while the tea steeps. Have used a slice of lemon in the past, but no matter how thin I get it, it's just too much, so I usually leave it out; only just recently got a peeler to cut twists with, though, so I'll have to try that.

I was always told this was a medicinal drink. Honey being the best thing for a cold/flu and cause it's thick, you have to add boiling water. Also, honey doesn't always have the best taste so you want to round out the flavor with whiskey which by the way, keeps the chills at bay. You gotta get your Vitamin C in there so add some lemon.

Monkey Shoulder in a hot toddy, well I'll be damned. Do you really want all those fruity, banana-y flavors in a winter/Christmas drink? If I made a hot toddy I'd probably use Glenlivet 12, since it tastes like apples and pears which would probably pair well with the lemon.

They just aren't drunk here or are done in different ways, or sometimes just go by a different name. Love the humour in your vids too, keep it up!
