Ep. 18 Doctors Orders - The Hot Toddy and Hot Negroni
Welcome to the episode 18 of The Art of Drinking with Join Jules and Your Favorite Uncle
What are we drinking?
As the story goes, and there’s more to this story, the Hot Toddy was a drink doctors would prescribe to cure what ails you. Like a warm hug on a cold night, the Hot Toddy is there to embrace you in its spirit-honey-citrus goodness. Jules throws a curveball and serves up a Warm Negroni, honestly… it’s really good, but you’ll have to decide which you like best. Don’t miss this episode!
