Hot whiskey is a wintertime favorite that's full of flavor and heat. It is an excellent remedy for colds or flu. This simple drink can be mixed with coffee, tea or juice or enjoyed by itself.
Whiskey's boozy flavor can be enjoyed on its own or with ice. When you're making a warm cocktail with whiskey, adding mixers will enhance the rich flavors.
A delicious blizzard, cranberry and bourbon drink that balances tart cranberries against a sweet bourbon shot is a great example of how whiskey goes well with cranberries. This drink would be perfect for a wintery day or holiday gathering.
Apple Cider Hot Toddy
This classic hot apple cider toddy is perfect for a cold evening by the fire. Replace the water in this recipe with hot apple juice and combine it with your favourite whiskey to make a warm, soothing drink. This is a good alternative to using apple-flavored brandy to make a hot tddy. It has less of a taste of apple and can be made from any whiskey you prefer.
This hot whisky drink also has a touch ginger which gives it a more robust flavor than other flavored drinks. The recipe calls on a bourbon whiskey with a strong flavor of ginger. However, you can use any flavored whisky that suits your hot toddy.
Ginger Spiced Hot Toddy
The ginger used here is not the kind of ginger found in a traditional hot toddy. It provides just enough sweetness to counteract alcohol. This drink is great to have on hand when you have guests over because it's easy to make, and it's an inexpensive way to spice up your cocktails.
Christmas Berry Cocktail
If you're looking for a tasty, holiday-themed beverage that's sure to get your party started, this berry sage whiskey cocktail is for you. It's a variation on the traditional whiskey-sage cocktail, with a nice winter spice mixture and a zesty citrus note to keep things bright.

Rosemary Gimlet
To make this quick and simple cocktail, you will need fresh rosemary leaves, lemon juice and sugar. Of course, your favorite whisky is required. Just put all of these ingredients in a shaker and give it a shake. Then, pour it into a glass and top off with ice.
FAQ
How long does a batch of frozen homemade cocktails take?
It depends on how many cocktails you're making. For example, 12 cocktails can take about 20 minutes. It will take 40 mins to make 24 cocktails.
How do I know if a drink is strong?
Drinks with more alcohol are stronger than those with less. Proof is a measure of how much alcohol is in a drink. One proof equals 1 part alcohol to 100 percent pure grain alcohol volume. So a 12 oz. A bottle of wine would need to be 10 proofs while a 16 oz. bottle would require 16. beer would be 13proofs and a 40oz. 45 proofs would be the bottle of Scotch.
What happens to a drink if it contains too many ingredients?
Drinks that contain too many ingredients will have a diminished flavor. This can lead to some of the original flavors being lost.
What are some great mixed drinks that you can order at the bar?
An Old Fashioned is a drink I recommend. This classic cocktail consists of bourbon whiskey mixed with sugar syrup, bitters, water, and other ingredients.
This name derives from the fact that the original recipe was made without ice. The original recipe called for just whiskey, sugar, and bitters.
People added ice to the mix and then they added "Old-Fashioned", because they thought it tasted better.
A Manhattan is also an option. This is another great option. This is essentially a variant on the Old Fashioned. Instead of using whiskey, you use Rye whiskey. And instead of using sugar, you use sweet vermouth.
Because it is easy to prepare and delicious, this is a popular choice for bartenders.
What is the difference in a Manhattan and a martini, exactly?
The ingredients for a martini are gin and vermouth. To make a Manhattan, you add whiskey to sweet vermouth. Both drinks should be consumed chilled.
What does it mean to be a shaker
A shaker is used for mixing two or more ingredients. The shaker comes with a strainer so you can strain any remaining solids from the mixture. It also has a lid to stop unwanted smells escaping as it shakes.

How To
How to make the Best Brandy Alex Recipe
The first step in making any cocktail recipe is finding the right ingredients. This drink will use Cognac, a French distilled spirit made of fermented grapes. Although it is usually clear, you might see oak barrels. You can purchase cognac from specialty liquor stores as well as online retailers like Amazon.com.
Next, we'll add some simple syrup. Simple syrup simply means sugar dissolved with water. Over medium heat, we will dissolve 1 cup of granulated brown sugar in a small saucepan. Stir the sugar until it is completely dissolved (about 5 minutes). To cover the sugar, add 2 inches of cold tap water. Let it sit overnight. Strain out sugar crystals by using cheesecloth. Keep the liquid in a sealed container in your refrigerator for at least 3 weeks.
Our Brandy Alexander Cocktail will be made with Cognac and simple syrup. Add the Cognac to a shaker. Top it with half a cup of ice cubes. Pour the Cognac into a shaker and top it with simple syrup.
