Maple Hot Toddy
About
The Maple Hot Toddy is comfort redefined - a modern, tequila-forward twist on a timeless classic. Traditionally made with whiskey, this version leans on Teremana Reposado to bring warmth, depth, and a hint of oak that blends beautifully with rich maple syrup. The lemon juice cuts through with a bright, citrusy edge, while cinnamon rounds out the flavors with cozy spice.
It’s the kind of cocktail that feels like wrapping yourself in a blanket by a fire - soothing, aromatic, and just sweet enough to make you linger on every sip. Perfect for cold evenings, slow mornings, or when you need a calm reset after a long day.
The Maple Hot Toddy doesn’t just warm you up; it elevates your moment. Balanced, earthy, and effortlessly comforting, it’s proof that tequila belongs in every season - even sweater weather.
Shaken or Stirred? Built and stirred. This drink is all about gentle mixing - no shaking, just a warm swirl of smooth layers.

FAQs
Can I use other spirits instead of tequila?
Yes - whiskey or rum work well, but reposado tequila gives it a unique warmth and smooth finish.
What’s the best maple syrup to use?
Opt for pure Grade A maple syrup. Avoid pancake syrup; it lacks depth and natural sweetness.
Can I make it caffeine-free?
Absolutely. This drink contains no caffeine - it’s pure calm in a cup.
