January Cocktail of the Month - Spiritless Earl Grey Hot Toddy

Welcome to 2024!  With the holidays having passed and in the spirit of giving our livers a rest, it's time we reveal the N/A cocktail of the month: The Spiritless Earl Grey Hot Toddy.  It's still cold out so this drink is perfect for those short winter days at home or après ski at the lodge from a day on the slopes.  The delicate flavors of the earl grey tea combine perfectly with the cinnamon stick notes and offer a velvety finish from the lavender flavor.  Additionally, the notes from the spiritless bourbon offer notes of caramel and vanilla to add phenomenal depth to the drink.

We have a variety of options in spiritless bourbon, gin, whiskey, and many other options.  If you're looking to take a break from alcohol, our Land of Adult Beverage Discovery will have selections to satisfy!

Cheers!

Ingredients:

1.5 oz Spiritless 74 Kentucky Bourbon

3/4th oz Boozy Botanicals Lavender Earl Grey

6 oz Hot Water

Cinnamon stick for garnish

Directions:

1. Heat up water a boil

2. Add in Bourbon and Earl Grey,

3. Stir with a cinnamon stick

4. Let it cool down for 5 minutes

5. Pour into your favorite mug

6. Garnish said cinnamon stick 

When finished, your cocktail should have a soft gold look with darker hints as well as induce soft citrus notes with underpinnings of tea and oak.  When drinking, we notice the warm bourbon notes before transitioning into the bright combo of bergamot and lemon finally leaving a soft citrus finish with a hint of sweetness.  We consider this drink to be a fast, easy, and warming drink for any cold night. Just because you aren't drinking this month, doesn't mean you should deny yourself a fantastic drink-with cold snowy days ahead, this is a tasty addition to a warm cup of tea.
