How to Make an Apple Cider Hot Toddy

1. Heat the cider. Add the apple cider, lemon juice, and cinnamon to a small saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring to combine. Once steaming pour the mixture into a mug or glass.
2. Sweeten. Pour the honey into the glass with the apple cider mixture and stir it to combine.

3. Add the alcohol. Pour the whiskey, or bourbon, over the cocktail and garnish with a cinnamon stick and apple slice.

Recipe Variations

• Use a different alcohol: The best liquor for apple cider is the one you prefer. Instead of using whiskey, you can also use bourbon, rum, and vodka to spike your drink.
