warm up this winter: crunchy radish hot toddy

January 22, 2016 Danielle Lipson

Although we do not promote heavy drinking here at Crunchy Radish, we do like to have an occasional seasonal health-minded cocktail or a glass of wine. To help combat the bitter winter chill, I called upon our house mixologist, Danielle Lipson, to spice up and healthify a classic winter favorite - the hot toddy. 

Slightly tart and a little sweet, with a nice kick from ginger and spicy honey, this bourbon-laced bev will warm you up in no time....just try to stick to one mug, if you can.

toddy for a hottie

Spicy Maple Ginger kicker

  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1-inch piece of ginger, thinly sliced, grated, or peeled
  • 2 tbsps spicy honey - we like Bees Knees. If you can't find spicy honey, use regular honey and add 1/8 tsp of chili flakes. 

In a small sauce pan over low heat, combine maple syrup, ginger, honey, and 1/4 cup filtered water. Bring to a low simmer and cook for 5 minutes.  Remove the pan from the heat and let cool.  Strain and set aside.

For each toddy:

  • 1.5 oz. Bourbon- we recommend Bulleit
  • .5 oz fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • .5 oz  spicy maple ginger kicker
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 1 cinnamon stick

    Combine all ingredients in a mug, top with boiling water, and mix well.
