You’ll Need:
4 oz hot water (save 2 oz for a topper)
1 Bag Mighty Leaf Earl Grey or 2 tsp loose-leaf tea
3/4 tsp molasses
3/4 tsp brown sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla bean paste

Step 3: Measure and add the molasses, brown sugar, vanilla bean paste, and bourbon.
Step 4: Top off with 2 oz of hot water to keep the drink hot, and stir.
Step 5: Peel lemon rind, stud with four cloves, and add it as garnish. Spiced, slightly sweet, and soothing — now this is what a hot toddy should taste like!
