The Burning Bush is a spin off of the ever-so-popular Hot Toddy. The hot drink was created by Jim Meehan, a New York City mixologist at PDT and the Pegu Club. While the recipe calls for Bushmills Original Irish Whiskey, I preferred it with their smoother blends, Black Bush and (for a luxurious toddy-esque drink) the 1608 anniversary bottling.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 oz Bushmills Original Irish Whiskey
- 1 oz honey
- 3 oz hot water
- Garnish with lemon wedge
Preparation:
- Place lemon wedge in Toddy Glass or Irish coffee glass.
- Pour whiskey and honey over lemon.
- Fill with water.
