"I've been feeling under the weather all week, and with a bad storm setting in I wanted a hot drink to soothe my sore throat and ensure I sleep well (which I didn't last night). Having made a single in a big mug with double honey, I think I've found the "cure" and have even forwarded the recipe on to friends! Yum!
No bitters or clove I found though, so I just added 1oz Jim Beam to the traditional honey 'n' lemon: delicious!"
