Whatcha drinking (2024)?

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

Grapefruit juice after my morning mug of coffee, no milk, just coffee and sweetener.

Hubby has taken me over to freshly made coffee, but only 1 particular bean from 1 company. The rest I don't like.

Drank way too many beer last night..Went out to a local Dance and ran into a couple of old hockey buddies. Trading rounds all night. My youngest daughter and her boyfriend were with us..He loves to pound them back, too...I think my liver might need all of 2024 to recuperate....

Red wine blend from Pondview winery in Niagara.

We said we weren’t going to polish off the whole bottle tonight, but the best laid plans and all that…

Once the cork comes out of a wine bottle, it seems very rare for it to go back in.

Just taken 7 days, sorry 9 days scratchhead to finish a bottle here. It was opened on Christmas day. I put the remains into tonight's evening meal.

Husband and I went out for a walk in the cold, so when we got back I treated myself to a butterscotch hot toddy.

a butterscotch hot toddy.

Explain, please? Toddy over here is a malted milk drink, and butterscotch (when I was in the UK) was a kind of toffee. My brain is confused!
(well I suppose it often is )

A toddy here is a hot, usually boozy drink. They are usually sweet, and they are meant to warm you up from the inside on a cold day.

caseydog is correct- a hot toddy is basically a hot cocktail. This particular one had rum and butterscotch schnapps mixed with a bit of brown sugar, and then filled the mug with boiling water.

Hot toddies are fantastic warmers when it’s cold out. I used to drink them a lot when I was commuting by bike (which I did year-round).
