Hot Toddy Part 2!! It's Really Cold Today So I Wanted To Make Another Toddy But I Don't Think I Can Go

Hot Toddy part 2!! It's really cold today so I wanted to make another toddy but I don't think I can go for more of the first one I made. It's so boozey. So instead I made one following a recipe by Jamie Oliver.

Mine's a little different. I didn't have any star anise or cloves but I did have cinnamon sticks and nutmeg. I also used twists of lemon and orange. Otherwise I followed the recipe.

Not gonna lie mate it was bland at first. Then I added extra whiskey and GAGGED! But after brewing it in the teapot for a bit and adding a bit more honey it was quite nice. I love whiskey but the ones I own don't seem to work in toddys. The cinnamon and honey saved the day. Jamie said 3 minutes to brew. Nope. Waaaayyyy longer. Otherwise it's a waste of spices.

Maybe I'm just bad at toddys. But I'm not giving up just yet! Next challenge, The Manhattan!

Continuing on my quest to make sure the booze I bought doesn't go to waste (seriously alcohol in Australia is so expensive), today I made a Hot Toddy using a recipe by the YouTube channel How To Drink.

I like it. Not gonna lie the whiskey taste is strong but the bitters hit you at the end and leave a nice after taste. This is definitely for people who like whiskey. If you wanna make this use a whiskey you like. This is NOT a "let's use the cheap stuff cause you won't taste the alcohol" drink.

This is actually how I met a dear friend of mine. I was on the train to class when some guy in a PRISON UNIFORM (in Australia the uniforms are green and look kinda like nurses scrubs) starts asking questions about me like where I'm going, which TAFE (basically trade school) I go to, what classes I take ect. He tells me he just got out of prison and he's getting out at the same station and I should get coffee with him.

At this point I'm afraid to move and my stop the still ten minutes away. Just as the guy is about to ask where I live, a girl walks and says to me "Hey! I thought you said you missed the train sillybilly. Lucy wants us to get off here and met her at the music store". So I follow her out and she grabs my hand and we run into the next train car. The guy tried to follow but didn't see us re-enter the train so he's left on the platform.

The girl turns around and says "Are you ok? That looked creepy and thought you might want help. I heard that you go to the TAFE as me so I'll walk you."

Ever since the girl, Heaven-leigh, and I have been close friends and always met up on the train to class to look out for each other.

Don't be afraid to help someone in this way. As someone who was saved by this method, I can tell you that the person you help will be so grateful that you were there.

It's not just girls being harassed by creepy guys that need this but anyone who is being harassed. Like a Muslim women being insulted for her religious beliefs, a teenage boy being bullied, an open member of the LGBTQI+ community and anyone else who is scared and cornered.

We are all human beings and no one should be afraid to go about their day. A simple conversation, even just a few words can help someone get out of at best an uncomfortable situation and at worst a life threatening situation.
