[at-l] Hot bedtime drink for cold weather?

[Carla & Dave Hicks]

I was thinking about when backpacking in cold weather.

Hot toddies of various sorts, ports, cordials, etc and are more my norm at 
home.

Teas w/ dark rum
Coffees /w whisky [not whiskey]
Whiskey with water and raw sugar
drambuie, dekuyper,  amaretto, chambord, baileys, etc
So many options; so little time.

What's the list member's favorite bedtime hot drink?

I'll start the ball rolling. In the winter I carry a mixture of ovaltine,
dried milk, a fair amount of raw sugar & a tad of cayenne pepper. Add a bit
of hot water & a big spoon of ghee. Warms you up, gives you a sugar boost to
stoke up the old internal furnace for that cold sleeping bag, plus some slower
burning fat to bank the fires for the night.
