1) Whiskey has no fat, no carbs, and almost no sugar.
The calorie count is pretty much the same as its other spirited friend’s: gin, vodka and tequila, but with more personality.
2) Whiskey helps cure a cold! Whiskey has antioxidant properties (super power!).
The famous Hot Toddy has been a ‘cold’ remedy in Scotland since Whisky begun, and fortunately in more recent years, this recipe is now loved by many throughout the world.
The ‘Hot’ Hot Toddy is made of lemon, honey, hot water and whiskey.
o Lemon: vitamin C, to help reduce the longevity of the cold symptoms.
o Honey: famously known for its anti-inflammatory properties which helps soothe the throat.
o Hot water: heat is good to help clear out that mucus.
o Whiskey: is comforting, makes you a little sleepy, plus, it also has antioxidants.
3) There is also a decent amount of research to suggest that drinking a moderate amount of whiskey can lower the risk of heart disease, preventing cancer and even the onset of dementia due to antioxidants such as ellagic.
