Hot Toddy

I love this one - especially with a fine malt - you don't need to be poorly to enjoy it.

a wee dram of whisky or gin
1 tsp. pure honey
boiled water
1 slice fresh lemon
1 Tbsp. lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 stick cinnamon
1 clove

Put the honey into a mug and disolve in a wee bit of boiled water.

Add the whisky depending on your taste. 1-2 Tbsp. is recommended.

Top up with more boiled water. Add the cinnamon stick and cloves if used. Leave to stand for about 5 minutes. Remove the cinnamon stick and any cloves used.

Add the fresh lemon slice and lemon juice.  Stir well, then sprinkle with a pinch of ground nutmeg then serve.

Makes 1 drink.
