For chilly winter evenings, a warm beverage like the virgin hot toddy can be quite an ideal choice, especially given that it is infused with seasonal spices such as cinnamon and ginger. This zero-proof version of the winter cocktail classic is an enjoyable option to sip in tow with a crisp snack.
Fill a mug with boiling water and let it stand for a couple of minutes.
Meanwhile, stick the cloves into a lemon peel or wheel and set aside.
Infuse the remaining whole spices into freshly boiled water for 5 minutes.
Strain and pour into an Irish mug before stirring in the honey.
Garnish with the clove-studded lemon peel before serving.
