Vineonline, an online wine retail store delivering New Zealand wide, offers 3 hot boozy drink recipes perfect for getting rid of wintery chills.
With many cold nights ahead of us, make your evenings a delight with these fun and delicious recipes using affordable wines and spirits.
If you’re feeling under the weather, a warming and soothing hot toddy is sure to cure your ailments. For a simple brew, just combine 2 teaspoons of lemon juice and 1 cup of water with a serving of sweet bourbon.
Or if you’re feeling fancy, enjoy a refreshing hot toddy mixture of 1 cup of earl grey tea (black) with 3 and 1/3 tablespoons of whiskey, 2 tablespoons of honey, lemon juice, and a pinch of ground cinnamon. This rejuvenating recipe soothes coughs and colds while still letting you take pleasure in the things you love.
For a creamy, zesty and smooth blend of whiskey, try Vineonline’s Glenlivet Founders Reserve Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml). Normally $64.99, it is featured at $62.99 this month and would make the perfect addition to any evening brew.
Alternatively, if you’re feeling more like settling down and enjoying a cup of indulgence, try the rich taste of a Baileys and whipped-cream hot chocolate. Simply include 4 tablespoons of Bailey’s Irish Cream to 1 cup of your favourite hot chocolate, add whipped cream – and indulge.
If you’re having friends over for dinner, a jug of warming mulled wine is the perfect addition to your evening. Instead of a mixture of traditional red wine, try a mulled white wine and include Vineonline’s The Sounds Marlborough 2018 Riesling in your recipe. This trophy-winning Riesling is flavoured with medium–sweet tones of honeysuckle, lime, and peach and would make for a delicious and sweet concoction.
