Must Mix Twist on a Hot Toddy

A Hot Toddy has always brought that element of nostalgia, as soon as the weather starts to drop, the sun shines a little less bright and we begin to plan for the cold ahead.

Reaching for a warm libation seems to be a snow day accessory, and by adding the rich V.S.O.P Cognac of D’USSÈ™ in place for the more common whisky, it creates a perfect marriage of the familiar and the adventurous.

To elevate the classic cocktail, D’USSÉ has created the” Botequero,” made with comforting notes of orange zest and cinnamon, the perfect drink whether you’re in the snow or cozying up indoors.
