Brrr... baby, it's cold outside!
Heat up the holidays by serving guests a glass of seasonal spirit with a hot toddy.
Originating from Britain, this mixture of boiling water, liquor and a lemon twist was world-renowned for its currative effects. The liquor eased aches and distracted the sufferer from his woes while the hot liquid cleared congested sinuses.
These days, the toddy has re-gained steam with new twists on the classic cocktail.
While we can't attest to its medicinal value, the winter warmer always adds a dash of Dickens-esque classicism and cheer to any soiree.
Whether it's a mulled spiced wine or a frothy, foamy Irish creme confection, nothing goes better with snowfall than a cocktail to sip by the fire.
Here are a few recipes, sure to thaw and de-stress your holiday company.
