Tips & Tricks (5)

Coffee Quality Matters ☕
Use freshly ground, high-quality coffee beans for the most robust and complex flavor profile in your toddy.
Whiskey Selection Secrets 🥃
Choose a medium-bodied whiskey like bourbon or rye that complements the coffee's richness without overpowering the other ingredients.
Honey Harmony 🍯
Warm the honey slightly before mixing to help it integrate more smoothly and evenly throughout the cocktail.
Grapefruit Zest Technique 🍊
Before juicing, roll the grapefruit on the counter to release more essential oils and maximize juice extraction.
Temperature Precision 🌡️
Serve the toddy at around 135-140°F to maintain optimal flavor complexity and warming comfort.
