Hot Apple Toddy

By John, 25 November, 2023
Description

"Hot Apple Toddy"Here's another great winter warmer, especially for those first frosty nights in November when you still have fresh apples. It's just bourbon mixed with applesauce and hot water, but it's delicious!

This recipe is for two drinks, and it includes baking one apple and making fresh applesauce from it. You can save half an hour by using good-quality store-bought applesauce: use a heaping tablespoon of that for a single drink.

This would look nice with a cinnamon stick garnish if you can get three or four-inch cinnamon sticks.

Preparation time

Cooking time
30 minutes
Total time
35 minutes
Ingredients
1 Apple
2 t Sugar
4 oz Bourbon whiskey
4 oz Boiling Water
2 ds ground nutmeg
Instructions
  1. Peel and core the apples, then bake them in a heavy covered pot with a little water in the bottom until the apples are soft, about half an hour. You should be able to crush it easily with a fork.
  2. Put a kettle on to heat up some water to near-boiling.
  3. Put the apple and sugar in a mixer bowl and mix until it's a soft applesauce. Note: If you are using applesauce from a jar, then it will be too cold for the drink; microwave it for 30 seconds or so to warm it up.
  4. Put half of the applesauce into each of two toddy glasses or coffee cups.
  5. Add the bourbon and stir until mixed.
  6. Add 2 ounces or more of boiling water and stir well.
  7. Sprinkle grated nutmeg on top and serve hot.
Notes

A toddy glass is another name for an Irish coffee glass, a stemmed glass with straight sides and a little handle, holding 6-8 oz.

It's easy to make the applesauce in quantity. You could use store-bought applesauce but you might not want it with cinnamon or other flavors in it (or maybe you would!).
