I visited a coffee shop in Hartford on a cold winter day and ordered their honey lemon ginger tea. It was tart, sweet, full of flavor, and warmed me from head to toe. The proprietor was nice enough to give me a rough description of her recipe. After a few tries at home, I came up with this close version.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ginger and lemon: Fresh ginger and lemon will give your toddy the most flavor. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger, but it won't be as flavorful.
  • Peel the ginger: Peeling the ginger will help to remove the tough outer skin and make it easier to grate.
  • Grate the ginger finely: Grating the ginger finely will help it to dissolve more easily into the hot water.
  • Use honey or maple syrup: Honey or maple syrup will add a natural sweetness to your toddy. You can also use sugar, but it won't be as healthy.
  • Drink your toddy hot: A hot toddy is best enjoyed hot. If you let it cool down, the flavors will start to fade.

Conclusion:

A lemon-ginger toddy is a delicious and soothing drink that can help to relieve a sore throat, cough, or cold. It's also a great way to warm up on a cold day. If you're feeling under the weather, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
