Sweet relief

My fever has been gone for a couple of days, but I have one nasty cold left over. My throat is very sore and I have mostly lost my voice. Because I'm nursing, I can't take decongestants. But I can take whiskey!

Hot Toddy

1.5 oz whiskey
1 oz honey
1/3 oz lemon juice
3 oz hot tea

Put the honey and lemon juice in a small teacup and warm in the microwave until you can easily stir. Add whiskey and then hot, freshly brewed tea. Stir again and enjoy.

It's not the best tasting concoction in the world, but it's making my throat feel so much better.
