Tanqueray Gin Hot Toddy

Typically, the hot toddy is thought of as a drink reserved for dark liquors like brandy, rum, or whiskey. The real beauty of this gin toddy is how the botanicals of a great gin like Tanqueray open up when the hot water hits the gin. It is so aromatic that there is no need for tea in this toddy and it is easy to mix up in just a matter of minutes.
