Warming Ways with Whisky
Whisky is such a classic ‘what-the-doctor-ordered’ kind of drink – here we take a dram and add a gingery, lemon twist.
INGREDIENTS
Whisky Hot Toddy:
1 tablespoon honey
150-200mls boiling water
1/4 lemon
60mls whisky
a few slices fresh ginger
Whisky Highball:
60mls whisky
60mls ginger beer or ginger ale
3-4 lemon slices
METHOD
Whisky loves ginger and lemon!
For the Whisky Hot Toddy, put the honey in a small jug with the boiling water and stir to dissolve the honey. Leave to sit for a minute. Put the lemon quarter in a glass and gently press to release some of the juice. Add a few slices of ginger and the whisky, then top with honeyed water and stir to combine. Serve immediately.
For the Whisky Highball simply combine whisky and ginger beer or ginger ale in a tall glass, over ice. Add a few slices of lemon to serve.
Each recipe serves 1.
