Author Notes

I think one of the best aspects of a "hot toddy" is that it is enjoyed at the end of the day when you can finally relax. So I enjoy this recipe because it is so simple! I found a version of this recipe in The Hotel Limpia Cookbook. The hotel has been in Fort Davis, Texas since 1913. I changed the recipe to include more sugar, less tea bags, and a splash of rum for those nights when you really want a reward for the days work! —cowgirlculture

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 2 packets orange spice tea bags
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 cups cranberry juice (heated)
  • 1 shot rum (like Malibu or Parrot Bay)
Directions
  1. Steep the two orange spice tea bags in the 2 cups boiling water for 5 minutes.
  2. Add sugar and dissolve.
  3. Heat cranberry juice for about a minute in the microwave.
  4. Pour in cranberry juice to tea mixture.
  5. Add shot of rum. You could obviously increase the amount of rum according to the night of the week. I prefer Malibu or Parrot Bay rum.
  6. Divided into two big mugs or four tea cups. Garnish with a slice of orange if there is one handy.
