When I was a kid and had a bad cold or sore throat my mom would make a hot toddy heavy on the honey and lighter on the whiskey. I would take about two swallows and and then decide I wanted a nap. She would finish the rest. Looking back on it it was an absolutely brilliant way to get a sick whiny kid to sleep.

Y'all's mother's are amateurs.

My mom would give me hot toddy's light on the Whiskey, honey, and water and heavy on the tussin.

It worked so well I slept straight through the divorce.
