Winter is here! You know, those few blustery cold days we get each year — and they can sneak up fast. But they’re also a great excuse to slug down some hot toddies… those are hot drinks with alcohol in ’em and Deco’s hot to trot on the old-is-new-again trend.
These $12 hot drinks at Repour in the Albion on SoBe are called hot toddies…
Isaac Grillo: "A hot toddy originally was just lemon, honey, whiskey and hot water."
They’re a blast from the past and they’re making a comeback! This one’s a hot choco toddy….
Isaac Grillo: "You wanna have a nice healthy amount of booze in your hot chocolate. That’ll help warm you up."
And this here’s the mulled rum punch…
Isaac Grillo: "This one has cardamon, cinnamon, clove and allspice."
It’s all strained and served piping hot!
Isaac Grillo: "So you can see it steaming right there."
And here’s the Miami Keeps Me Hot and Spicy.
Isaac Grillo: "I made a fresh pressed apple cider with jalapeno, ginger and we’re gonna mix it with a little lemon juice and again Afrohead 7 Year."
The secret? Barbadian velvet falernum!
Issac Grillo: "It has hints of lime and almond and it’s also a little bit sweet. Get it nice and frothy."
Serve with an apple slice — delish!

Pour in the sweet….and bring on the heat!
