How strong is too strong
When one crafts a hot toddy?
I remain on my feet,
Yet my writing’s rather shoddy.
I’m light in the head
And wobbly in my body
I feel perfectly sane,
But I’m acting rather dotty.
Oh, dear, I think it’s fairly clear
I’ve too much whiskey in my toddy.
A trip through life with fingers crossed and eternal optimism.
Doing the best I can with what I have
kind of sad, but not so bad with cheese. cheese not provided.

I’ve never had a Hot Toddy. This looks delicious!

The condiments (lemon, cinnamon, apple, cloves, etc.) look inviting. With the whiskey, sounds like what the doctor ordered to drive off cold.

It does help. At the very least it cheers one up. I made a much simpler version because when I’m sick I don’t want to go through too many steps. I use honey, lemon, whiskey, and cinnamon and pour hot water over it all.

Thanks for sharing your recipe. I hope it did the magic for you and hope you feel better fast.
What after-effects came with your toddy?

Well if you did it wrong you should try again. If that one isn’t right you should try again. If that one isn’t right you should try again. If that one isn’t right………….. maybe after they revive you they will take you to the doctor which is probably what should have happened in the first place.

I LIKE the way you think. I actually made a great one yesterday afternoon, but as I’ve always been told, there’s always room for improvement.
