hot toddy station
I’m talking a Hot Toddy Station people! What drink is more perfect on Thanksgiving than a hot toddy?….. Right, nothing!
it’s as easy as…
This is honestly one of my favorite drinks this time of year (and can be made non alcoholic for the kiddos), and it is SO easy, because it is a self serving station! All you need to do is get a hot liquid dispenser for your apple cider OR you can always heat it on the stove in a large pot and keep a ladle next to it for serving, and make sure you have cups for hot drinks.
Here is the hot liquid dispenser I use & if you don’t want to be doing anymore dishes, here are some Thanksgiving themed disposable hot drink cups!
ingredients
You will need apple cider (comes in gallon sizes)
cinnamon sticks or ground cinnamon
whipped cream
caramel flavored vodka or any other alcohol you prefer
directions
simply set out all your ingredients next to your hot liquid dispenser (which will be used to heat the apple cider) or pot if you do not have a hot liquid dispenser.
i like to include a shot glass for measuring.
I also like to leave a permanent marker so people can write their names on their disposable cups.
whipped cream to top - especially for the kiddos (they would obviously just have the hot cider and whipped cream only)
