I’ve not posted an entry in ages! Been super busy over Christmas and I’ve been zonked out with a flu bug the last few days.

I’m currently sat shivering on the sofa in a million layers, enjoying a “fruity hot toddy” so I thought I would share the recipe in case anyone else is feeling under the weather.

Fruity hot toddy

Ingredients:

• Juice of ½ lemon
• Juice of 1 orange
• 1 x cup lemonade
• 1 x tbsp. whiskey (I used Famous Grouse)
• ¹/₈^th x tsp of cayenne pepper
• 1 x tsp syrup (I used a fruit syrup, agave or maple would also work. – optional)

Method:

1. Mix the lemonade, syrup and cayenne in a small saucepan and heat until hot (tip: it’s hard to measure out such a small amount of cayenne so I recommend not doing it over the lemonade, just in case!)
2. Bring off the hob and stir in the orange juice, lemon juice and whiskey.
3. Pour into a glass or mug and enjoy.
