Hot Toddy Recipe With Fireball Ingredients:
- Tea Bag– If this is a nightcap, you can use one of the sleepy-time teas, just note that a flavored tea will alter the drink’s taste.
- Honey– Using fresh local honey will help with allergy symptoms, but bottled store-bought honey also works.
- Hot Water
- Fireball Whiskey-In place of Fireball, Whiskey, or Bourbon as well if the cinnamon in Fireball is too much
- Cinnamon Stick
- Lemon Juice
How To Make Hot Toddy With FirebalL:
Fire up your Keurig or start boiling some hot water. Now I use my Keurig nonstop for the hot water function, so easy and fast.
In a mug or glass, squirt in some honey and lemon juice, and hang your teabag. (If you can’t tell, I have a mason jar problem and love my Mason jar mugs for cocktails)
Pour in your hot water, or allow it to brew into the glass.
Using a spoon or stir stick, mix together to dissolve your honey on the bottom and allow it to sit, so the tea bag brews a bit. I don’t let mine set as long I don’t like a strong tea taste. You can use green tea, but I used a regular bag.
Pour in your fireball shot. I got a shot bucket at Target over the summer with little bottles of Fireball it has been perfect for making small cocktails like this.
If you want to drop in a cinnamon stick. Now, if you want to get cinnamon sticks that won’t break the bank, look at Winco’s bulk section so much cheaper than in a spice jar in the spice aisle.
Remove your tea bag and give the cocktail another stir.
Enjoy your nightcap!!
