Hot Toddy Tea Recipe
Katie Goodman | Good Life {eats}Hot Toddy Tea has everything in it you need to feel better. All natural, all delicious!
I really don’t mind winter, especially living in Colorado. We get so much sun with our snow that even when it is crazy cold outside it doesn’t always feel that way.
We don’t get stuck with weeks on end of grey, depressing skies coupled with snow and ice covered grounds. It’s pretty perfect.
What’s not perfect is being plagued with all of the uncomfortable cold symptoms, like sore throats, sniffles and congestion, and coughs, when we could be outside enjoying the sunshine and snow.
There is nothing that I dislike more than a lingering winter cold. This recipe for Hot Toddy Throat Soother is a great tool to help kick that winter cold in the butt so you can get back to enjoying all the great things winter has to offer.
