Sure, chicken soup is one liquid remedy for the common cold that everyone knows about—and yeah, it works. But hey, let’s not forget the merits of alcohol in any situation! The Hot Toddy is an old school cold symptom cure—and a remedy my grandparents swore by; the Toddy will warm you up, soothe your throat, and lift your little downtrodden sickie-sick spirits. Toddy cocktails vary, but my favorite recipe involves a big mug and a shot of good bourbon—I prefer Makers Mark or Knob Creek—with a heaping tablespoon of honey, a wedge of lemon, some fresh ginger, a stick of cinnamon, hot water and a pat of butter on top. It’s mmm, mmm, good![SC]
