Yesterday, I was stuck at home with a horrible cold.  Sniffly, sad, and pouty.  I laid on the couch, surrounded by rumpled kleenex and supervised by the dog.

A friend sent me a hot toddy recipe with the promise that it would make me feel much better.  I tweaked it (for science!) and I must admit, she was right.  I did feel better.  Enough to mooch around the block with the dog and then sprawl on the couch again.  And if it doesn't make me feel better per se, I certainly care a lot less.  Heh. 

In a mug, mix:
1 shot lemon juice
1 shot blood orange marmalade
2 shots warm water
1 teaspoon butter
1 large spoonful clover honey

Microwave until quite hot. 

Mix in 1 shot 12-year Macallan (I favor sherry cask, YMMV, and many people prefer bourbon or Irish).

Good for what ails you.
