The Last Viceroy - A Hot Toddy Story

Posted on Apr 3, 2008 by Registered CommenterChantel in , | Comments2 Comments

Since I’ve had the flu or something very close I’ve spent a lot of time perfecting my hot toddy recipe. There really is no medicine out there that makes all of your symptoms go away so I attack the final remaining symptoms with alcohol. I drink until I’m barely able to keep my eyes open and then proceed to watch documentaries until I slip quietly into a coma. I was talking with a friend the other day reciting my very special hot toddy ingredients and she suddenly came up with the most obscure reference. I researched and found the Lord MauntBatten was a very special military character in the British Forces and find that yes indeed his name can grace the tonic for all that cures me.

The Last Viceroy

**1/2 shot Brandy or Kentucky Bourbon
1/4 lemon juice (fresh)
Fill cup with hot brewed Oolong Tea (Revolution Dragon Eye Oolong)
1/2 Teaspoon of honey
optional - cinnamon stick.

**Here at LATC.com we practice safe drug and alcohol combination and usage. Otherwise I would fully endorse an entire shot of alcohol.

This sounds fantastic. I've had two or three toddies and they've all been vile; I was sure a good one was out there for me somewhere. I love the oolong, and I don't understand how civilization was established prior to the invention of bourbon. But only half a shot? that oolong has lots of caffeine... Maybe I'll just try it to wash down the taste of a donkeyshot of nyquil. (I just tried to find a link for the donkeyshot and found instead some rather unsavory references, so I'll clarify, it's a shotglass with four graduated levels at one-ounce increments - three "lesser" ones and, at four full ounces, a "donkey" because you will make an ass of yourself. QED.)

feel better soon. Go Huckabee!

Dan, Here at LATC we practice safe drug and alcohol combinations. Otherwise I would fully endorse an entire shot of alchol.
