Time 15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 cups distilled water
1 orange
15 whole cloves
1/2 cup honey
2 cinnamon sticks
One 2-inch piece fresh ginger, cut into coins
2 cups whiskey

Steps:

  • Heat the water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
  • Use a vegetable peeler to remove two large strips of orange peel. Pierce the peels with the whole cloves and set aside. Squeeze the juice of the orange, about 1/4 cup.
  • Add the orange juice, honey, cinnamon sticks, sliced ginger and the orange peel with cloves to the saucepan and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes. Once the liquid is simmering, add the whiskey, then turn off the heat.
  • Ladle into glass mugs and serve immediately. Alternatively, keep warm on very low heat on the stovetop or in a slow cooker on low heat. Garnish with additional orange peel.
