Notes

Heat your mug before making the hot toddy. To keep the cocktail hot pour some boiling water into the mugs as you assemble the ingredients for the cocktail. When ready to mix pour out the hot water; the mugs should be warm and ready for the hot toddy. Our favorite mug to use is a glass mug to see the ingredients inside.
Use good quality whisky. Any cocktail benefits from the quality of the liquor. Use good quality whiskey to feel your best after drinking it.
Not a whisky drinker? Substitute rum; either dark rum or spiced rum if that is more to your liking.
