You may notice that we are not using herbal tea, black tea, or any hot tea in this recipe. Don’t worry, we also aren’t using regular whiskey for this crown royal apple whisky cocktail. We are using Crown Apple!  

What is Crown Apple?

Crown Apple drinks are made with Crown Royal Regal Apple flavored whisky. This is infused with regal gala apples and aged for a minimum of three years in oak barrels. This crown royal whisky blend has a sweet, fruity flavor with hints of apple and cinnamon which makes it perfect for this hot apple toddy.

How to Make a Crown Hot Apple Toddy

First, add the honey to your favorite mug. We like these tall hot toddy glass mugs (here).

Then place a lemon wedge into the mug and pour the boiling water in. A great way and easy way to heat the water is with a tea kettle on the stove. The water should be hot enough to dissolve the honey. 

Next, pour the apple-flavored crown royal whiskey into a cocktail jigger. 

Add the whisky to the mug and stir for about 2 minutes until the honey dissolves.

Add a lemon slice and a cinnamon stick to the glass, serve, and enjoy. See how easy this crown royal apple whiskey cocktail is to make? 

Apple Toddy – The Best Thing for a Cozy Night

This hot cocktail can be described as a whiskey drink that meets hot apple cider. It is the perfect balance of fresh apples and tart flavors. Using hot water in place of hot tea gives this warm cocktail a clean flavor and allows the crisp apple flavor of the Crown apple to shine. 

Hot toddies have a history of being a home remedy for cold symptoms. You don’t need the sniffles to enjoy this delicious drink. This comforting cocktail is great for cold days, happy hour and and is always a good option for your go-to holiday cocktails.
