7. Hot toddy
True story: I knew a guy who used to walk up to people and say, in a breathy Marilyn Monroe voice, “Hi, I’m Toddy. Hot Toddy.” Thankfully, the drink is good, too.
6. Spiked cider
A foolproof formula for grown-ass fun: Take any childhood staple — musical chairs, telephone, Twister, hide-and-seek — and add alcohol. That’s it. You get to relive the joy of your carefree days as a kid, and nine months later, you might even end up with a new kid of your own! Anyway, warm apple cider paired with spiced rum makes for a fine time.
5. Tom & Jerry
This variation of hot buttered rum is also hot and made with butter. But it’s renowned for how much it pays off for all the work it takes to make it. Almost enough to make you forget how racist its namesake cartoon could be!
