Cold Whiskey Toddy.

(Use small bar-glass.)

  • Take 1 tea-spoonful of fine white sugar.
  • Take 1 wine-glass of Bourbon, or rye whiskey.
  • Take 1 lump of ice.

Dissolve the sugar in the water, add the whiskey and ice, and stir with a spoon.

To make Hot Whiskey Toddy, dissolve the sugar in boiling water, omit the ice, and pour boiling water into the glass, until it is two-thirds full.
