Hot Drinks from Cold Bloggers

December 14, 2009 by Dave 3 Comments

Gluhwein!There’s nothing we can do about the cold weather, but the effects can be ameliorated.

This past weekend I visited House Spirits‘ Holiday Booze Bazaar, and, the weekend before, Season’s Eatings at New Deal Distillery.

Now what’s a poor cold blogger to do with all the acquired booze? Make a warming cocktail of course! And I’ll be starting with these recipes from local blogs the next time an arctic blast™ approaches (or maybe sooner):

  • John’s Tom & Jerrys from Good Stuff NW
  • Wassail from Jeffrey Morgenthaler
  • Hot Applejack Toddy from Cocktailia
  • Hot Toddy also from Cocktailia
  • The World’s Best Hot Buttered Rum from My Life on the Rocks
  • Arctic Blast Glühwein from yours truly
  • Winter Solstice Glühwein also my own invention!

    I want to make some hot mulled cider and add some brandy. Or some other sweet booze. Though, I have a bad history with apple alcohol drinks. Like hard cider. And apple flavored vodka. Oof.

    Heather – The Hot Applejack Toddy perhaps? Instead of hot water, we could add hot cider!

    One of my favorite hot drinks is soon to be added to the Carlyle drink menu: hot chocolate with Branca menta.
