Oh well, the people who make those so-called "vodka stingers" probably don't use a candy cane as garnish!

Absolutely!  You could call it a "Santa's Helper".

I like it! And around Christmastime, Santa often could use all the help she he can get!

Me too - when the red cups come out I buy the lattes but rarely visit starbucks the rest of the year.

So, the topic of hot toddies came up in chat this weekend.  And, I was inspired to post a recipe here.  I'm sad to see that hot toddy hasn't received any votes yet... so maybe this will inspire a surge in its popularity.  ::) ;D

Anyway... I think there are a ton of different interpretations of what "hot toddy" means... but here's one that sounds good.

I've been starting my day with a cup of Earl Grey tea with honey lately.  And I recently discovered something called a Generra at a favorite coffee place - it's a mocha (meaning coffee with chocolate syrup and milk) with a couple of long, curly strips of organic orange rind swirling around in it.  I always used to think chocolate and orange was a gross combo - now I like it.  Weird how tastes can change.
