Notes
Apple Cider may be substituted for the Eastside Original to lessen the alcohol.Either cider can be gently warmed in a saucepan on the stovetop or in the microwave. You want it nice and steamy, but not too hot so it burns your tongue or ruins the liquor's flavor.Warming up the glass or mug ensures your toddy stays warm longer. To do so, simply fill it hot water while you heat up the cider or put a water-filled glass in the microwave for 5 or 10 seconds. Dump out the water before mixing the drink.This recipe and photo are courtesy of Frank's Americana Revival in Houston.
