Making a Seasonal Farmer's Market Drink: Hot Toddy Shrub

Written By Janet Chen

A rainy day at the farmer's market during the last days of summer, during a pandemic, right before an election. In this present moment, the perfect drink is an easy, warm, fresh cider with Honey Ginger Shrub.

Hot Toddy Shrub

  • 2 oz fresh Apple Cider from the Farmer's Market

  • 3 oz of Hot Water

  • 2 Tbsp of Mad Maiden Honey Ginger Shrub

Serve in a mug or thermos.

Each moment, each day, each week, each season is transitory. "Mono no aware." Support local farmers.

[Mono no aware: Japanese term for appreciating the transiency of life and its beauty or recognizing that some things are beautiful in part because they are impermanent.]
