Now the season of the cold and the sore throat is upon us, and same rekindled my interest in hot toddies. If you have a favorite, and are willing to share it, please mail me. Below is a simple but tasty bedwarmer. Hot Orange Toddy 1 1/2 cup orange juice 3-4 oz rum (I prefer dark) Heat the orange juice to very hot, but not boiling (I use 3 minutes in the microwave on high). Add rum and stir. You may wish to add a sprinkle of nutmeg or a twist of mint. Some like more sugar than the OJ provides. Enjoy. Nemo

Note that heating orange juice destroys most of the Vitamin C. I'm not sure that Nemo intended to link the OJ and C in the toddy to any cures for the cold or sore throat, and this sure sounds like it will taste good and feel good on a sore throat, but some people might think that this is a good way to get more C. It isn't. Also beware mixing alcohol with drugs for colda. Please no flames about the treatment of these ills with megadoses of vitamin C. Some people believe and others don't.

A friend is in need of recipes for hot beverages (preferably with alcohol) that can be made in massive amounts (i. e., to accomodate 50 people). Please mail to me by 1/16, if possible (especially if you know how to make the drink "hot apple pie"). Thanks!!! Diane Wilkerson ..!hopd3!dvw

I believe the recipe may be on the tuaca bottle. Jack the Ripper Mug of hot chocolate one and a half ounces (to taste) Youkon Jack Top with whipped cream This would be about the same ratio as the hot apple pie Swedish Glogg 2 1/2 cup rasins Whole Cardamom 2 tsp whole cloves 2 cinnamon sticks peel of one orange 2 1/2 cups sugar 1 gallon dry red table wine whole unblanched almonds 1. Rinse and drain raisins. Peel cardamom pods; extract black seeds, and pound seed to a powder to measure 1 tablespoon. Combine spices, raisins, orange peel, sugar and eight cups of water. 2. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer for at least 15 minutes. 3. Strain (save raisins); Add liquid to red wine in a kettle large enough to accomodate liquid and wine. 4. When ready to serve, heat to simmering. Place two or three almonds and a few reserved raisins in each punch cup, and pour the hot, spicey brew over them. Makes 48 1/2 cup servings.

Variations on a coffee theme. I almost forgot about the Ammeretto and Kaluha coffees. Add a shot of Ammeretto(get Ammertto de Sinora) or Kaluha for each cup of coffee (A little of each is yummy, also) and don't forget the dollop of Whipped cream! Then of course, the Hot Toddy, Irish Coffee and Mexican coffee are recipies that are generally avaliable in any bartenders guides. Take a peek the next time you're in the liquor store, and look on the liquor labels for more good ideas. -- -Christie Earl {...sun!ios ...hplabs|fortune!oliveb}!tymix!earl 186,000 miles per second.
