When it's chilly outside, there's nothing better than a warm, boozy beverage to warm you from head to toe. This hot toddy combines hot tea — my favorite — and warm spices, plus bourbon and lemon. Bonus: It also makes your home smell wonderful!

Ingredients

1/2 cup honey

3 pods cardamom

3 sticks cinnamon, plus more for garnish

2 Lady Grey tea bags
