My best friend, who just happens to be Irish, made this hot Irish whiskey drink for me one cold night in Chicago, and since then, I have been hooked! Warning: It is very potent. Just one of these will warm you up and basically make you good for nothing afterward โ€” what a treat! It is super to drink at night if you have a sore throat. My friend said this is what the Irish drink if they don't feel good, but don't wait until you have a cold to try this recipe!

Ingredients

  • 8 whole cloves
  • 1 , 1/4-inch thick
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 0.75 cups boiling water
  • 1 , 1.5 fluid ounce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Press cloves into lemon slice peel around entire peel; set aside.

  2. 2

    Add sugar to a wine glass; place a metal spoon into the glass with the curved side facing upwards. Pour boiling water over the back of the spoon; this will keep your wine glass from shattering. Stir until sugar dissolved; add whiskey and lemon slice. Steep before drinking, about 1 minute.
