Irish Whiskey Ginger Toddy
What makes this toddy truly unique is the source for the ginger because here we use ginger beer. That's right, ginger beer in a warm cocktail and it works surprisingly well. When whiskey, the ginger beer, sour, and honey meet hot water (not boiling) everything opens up and the flavors create this enlivening and comforting drink that is ideal for warming up on the coldest of days.
To warm your mug simply pour hot water in it and let it sit for a few minutes before preparing the drink.
2 parts Kilbeggan® Irish Whiskey
2 parts fresh lemon sour
2 parts ginger beer
1 bar spoon honey
Hot water
Cinnamon stick or grated cinnamon for garnish
In a pre-heated coffee mug, pour hot water over the honey and stir to dissolve. Add all remaining ingredients and top with additional hot water.
Dust with fresh ground cinnamon and serve with a festive stir stick.
