Cardamom - Essential to a Great Hot Toddy

Cardamom Seed Cardamom is an unusual spice that's the essential ingredient in the absolute best hot toddy ever invented. A native to India, it's best to buy the whole seeds and grind them yourself. The spice can be a little expensive, but if you like a good toddy, or hot buttered rum to the uninitiated, it's absolutely worth it.

If you have a cold, are cold, or are feeling blue, start a fire in the fireplace and have a toddy.

If you have an interest in grinding your own spices, be sure to use a grinder with an all metal grinding chamber. I use a coffee grinder I reserve for herb use.  It works great for me.
