What's your hot beverage of choice during the winter?

[Marianne]

For the most part, I'm a plain ol' coffee kind of gal, winter and summer. But during the long, cold nights of winter, I don't need tons of caffeine. Sometimes I'll drink hot tea....other times just hot water with a bit of lemon or orange juice, cinnamon, cloves, whatever sounds good at the time.

I think I need some new ideas! What do you drink?

I like two kinds:

Black English Tea with Ground Mint

OR

An orange-cranberry tea mom makes, that is awesome!

Apple Pie.


Put 1 Gallon of fresh cider in a large pot, with about a dozen cinnamon sticks and barely bring it to a simmer. Let it cool, and add 1 fifth of Junior Johnsons Moonshine.
If you want Apple Pie Ala mode, add some vanilla to it.


Your welcome.

Hot tea ... and not just in the winter. Hot, black, strong tea ... a teapot full made first thing in the morning; between DH and me we will go through that once, and refill with more water for a second go 'round. In the evenings if I need something hot I will usually have some herbal tea. If its very cold, and if I am feeling a bit under the weather, I'll have some Irish whiskey mixed with hot water. Mulled wine or cider is nice too, but I usually only think of that at Christmas. DH likes hot chocolate sometimes.

Whole milk - little bit of raw honey - little bit of cinnamon - little bit of vanilla - gently warmed. Wonderful.
