Rum Hot Toddy
For me, the ultimate Hot Toddy is built on aged Jamaican rum. Its inherent spice and rich molasses notes are a perfect match for the Demerara syrup and cinnamon, creating a drink that’s both comforting and surprisingly complex. It's the definitive cold-weather sipper.
Recipe Ingredients
1/2 oz. (15 ml) rich Demerara syrup (2:1 sugar:water)
1/4 oz. (7.5 ml) fresh lemon juice
4-5 oz. (120-150 ml) black tea
1 cinnamon stick
Expressed lemon oil
Clove-studded lemon peel for garnish
Recipe Directions
2. Add the hot black tea and cinnamon stick. Stir to integrate.
3. Express lemon oil over the surface of the drink.
4. Garnish with a clove-studded lemon peel.
