Total time:
Warm up with a hot toddy. This classic winter cocktail combines whisky with honey, lemon and spices. We’ve used the traditional whisky here (single malt will really elevate the drink) but any dark spirit works well – try swapping it for bourbon, dark rum, cognac or calvados, or add a dash of orange or Angostura bitters
