Water and lemon

This will provide a healthy dose of immune-boosting vitamin C. If you crave a soothing hot drink first thing, simply go for the good old hot water and lemon. You can't go wrong. If this is a tad too bitter for your taste buds, try a small drop of honey to sweeten it.

Hot Buttered Rum

Warm, spiced butter is the key ingredient in this cozy winter drink. We use apple pie spice which has cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg, but pumpkin pie spice would also be a delicious option. Get the Hot Buttered Rum recipe.

To make a hot toddy, you'll need bourbon (which is a type of whiskey), honey, lemons, cinnamon sticks, star anise pods, and whole cloves. Simply combine the bourbon, lemon juice, and honey in a mug and add boiling water (use more or less water depending on how strong you'd like your hot toddy to be).

Ginger Tea

Fresh ginger root gives this tea a spicy kick that will warm you up from the inside out. Add honey and lemon for extra flavor and health benefits.

Move Your Body

Go for a walk or a jog. If it's too cold outside, hit the gym, or just do some jumping jacks, pushups, or other exercises indoors. Not only will it warm you up, it helps build and keep your muscles, which also burn calories and make body heat.
