MAKER'S MARK HOT TODDY
A Maker's Mark Hot Toddy is a pretty nice antidote to sufferers of the cold, even if that's just the cold weather we're talking about. There are a lot of riffs out there on this wintry classic. This one gets spiced up a bit with a delicious cinnamon syrup that you'll find a variety of uses for.
Ingredients:
2 parts Maker's Mark Bourbon
1/2 part lemon juice
1/2 part cinnamon simple syrup
1/4 part honey
2 dashes Angostura Bitters
Top with hot water
Lemon wheel and cinnamon or nutmeg for garnish
Method:
Add all ingredients to a mug and stir well. Garnish with lemon wheel and fresh grated cinnamon or nutmeg. To make cinnamon syrup, mix equal parts sugar and water with one broken-up cinnamon stick per 1/2 cup. Bring to a boil. Once sugar is completely melted, remove the pan from heat and let sit for at least 30 minutes. Strain out cinnamon.
