Recipe: Spiced Hot Cider. Spiced Apple Toddy. Posted by ReadyMade by Alex Day; Photos by Kathryn Gamble The apple toddy was without a doubt the de facto winter beverage for colonial New England. With plenty of apples around for winter sustenance and a healthy dose of Applejack (our dis tinctly American version of apple brandy), the combina tion was easy, delicious and, above all, comfor ting.
Here I’ve added a li ttle spice to the baked apple and used French apple brandy, only slightly altering a recipe that stretches back to the 18th century. Before the cocktail truly became part of American drinking, there was the toddy.

CocktailFlow. How to Make Liqueur At Home from Any Fruit. Homemade flavored liqueur is one of the simplest ways to preserve the flavor of fresh fruit.
I posted a recipe for cranberry liqueur last year, but one can make liqueur with any fruit with the following simple method. Local, in season fruits make the best liqueurs because they have the strongest fresh flavor. Choose clean washed fruit. Smash berries, chop stone fruits, or juice citrus and place in a clean large glass container, like a half gallon ball jar. This series of photos uses some local concord grades from our fruit CSA. Add an equal volume of cooled sugar syrup or honey. Top that off with an equal amount of full strength (80 proof) or higher vodka. Add the lid and give the mix a swirl. When the taste is to your liking, usually in five to seven days, strain out the fruit. Bottle in a jar with a tight fitting lid. The color may mute over time but the flavor will remain fresh for years.
