It’s winter, which means it’s cold outside and sometimes we get colds. Nothing is a great way to start kicking that cold like a classic hot toddy. We’ve done a classic hot toddy on the blog before, but this Spiced Hot Toddy-inspired recipe infused with cinnamon and orange and made with my favorite Maker’s Mark will be the perfect way to warm you from the inside and maybe even help kick that winter cold! Thanks to Maker’s Mark for hosting this #MakeItTealicious Hot Toddy Challenge.

I love Hot Spiced Toddies! They are so delicious and really warm me up! I want to make your festive recipe for the Holidays. Thanks for sharing.
Ooh, yum! I bookmarked this for the next time I get a cold!
These really do work for cold. Honest to goodness it was my Grandmothers go to remedy for a hard to shake cold. She had no problem making one to relieve symptoms. Plus they are good.
For us too, this is a tried and true recipe for a cold- for adults of course! It really does seem to work. Hubby swears by it, and for me, it puts me to sleep.
