The Hotel Saskatchewan is a historic hotel, one of Canada’s grand railway hotels located in downtown Regina. Queen Elizabeth stayed there several times when she visited Canada. Yes it is a bunny hug not a hoodie!
My parents gave me that in the 50s for a cough and cold sore throat, lemon, honey and any booze given by the tablespoon, a few of those and a 6 yr old didn't care about feeding bad
My grandma gave me the same for a sore throat. Sure it was Rye because that is what she had a bottle of for her brother who would have a shot when he visited.bbfunny, like home and lemon, but can't stand any type of whiskey.
This is the most Canadian Glen and Friends I think I’ve seen yet…I left more confused than when I started which is say something but it was fun none the less
I now need a parody of “Hotel California.” And of course: A seal waddles into a bar. It looks as it’s seen horrors. “Whiskey, please!” it tells the bartender. “Any particular type of whiskey, sir?” “Anything but that Canadian Club!”
Nice. The Hotel Saskatchewan is about 8 blocks from my house. The Hotel Saskatchewan was built by the Canadian Pacific Railway and first opened in downtown Regina Saskatchewan in 1927.
Having stayed at the Hotel Saskatchewan in the past and certainly doing so in the future I will request this most authentic drink. I feel a little special for having been able to say that. Cheers to all. Bunny Hugs as well.
Literally the cough syrup from my childhood. It always was better than anything from the grocery store shelves. And so much cheaper! Still used to this day in my family.
I went to a wedding in the Hotel Saskatchewan. Nice old building, pretty good eats too. Also, I maintain that CC 100% rye is a fantastic value for money. Drinks better than many that cost more, and a great choice for cocktails. Makes a killer Sazerac.
One of your books has a similar recipe with orange juice instead of lemon. I spotted it when you showed the page in a video you did around Christmas 2 or 3 years ago. I tried it and liked it quite a bit.
Glen, You said freshly "squeezed" instead of your alternative "squozen" to which I cringe because my mother would never approve. Although I don't drink, nor do I drink soda, I used to drink ginger ale, and my only brand was Canada Dry. Canada's winning on multiple fronts. I'm American but I tip my hat to our northern neighbor. Thanks, Glen. - Marilyn
And don’t you regret that now? Think about it-which phrase is scarier: A) Three youths in hoodies walked through the dark towards us B) Three youths in bunnyhugs walked through the dark towards us Once you throw “bunnyhug” in there it’s tough to maintain that level of dread.
Yummy. My go too for a while now has been Rye, fresh lemon on the rocks. No sugar. Poor man’s Whiskey Sour! If stateside, works well with Wild Turkey - Honey Bourbon as well 😋
A version of a Gold Rush (my personal favorite cocktail) which is a version of a bee’s knees and so on and so on… suffice to say what the combo of honey and lemon does with most spirits is exquisite
Nice, almost a simplified rye sour. I wonder if the Dillons would be better in a Penicillin-like build where there's some other flavours to compete/blend with.
@@GlenAndFriendsCooking maybe, but it calls for “liquid honey“, which makes me believe they were not going for straight honey. But I bow to your superior knowledge on historical cocktails
Ah but - 'Liquid Honey' is also a term used by beekeepers (several in my family) to differentiate it from other types of honey that are solid at room temperature.
Really?? Today's "cocktail” is what my granddad's go to mixture he gave me in the 1950's to sooth a sore throat; honey, lemon and whiskey. 🤯. Respectfully, W.S.
I looked it up based on cross checking other period cocktail recipes, and it appears to be a distinction between solid or whipped honey and the liquid that I’m using here. Honey syrup doesn’t seem to show up until much later.
Yes. 'Liquid Honey' as opposed to 'Natural Honey' or 'Creamed Honey' or 'Crystalised Honey' I know you were trying to be facetious, but there really are different grades / styles of honey based on their consistency and wether they flow freely at room temperature.

It's a rye sour, and they're delicious as all get out!
A solid Canadian episode with references to bunny hugs and Stompin' Tom Connors. Beauty, eh? 🇨🇦

Same here, but with a dash of ginger. Not the fresh stuff of course, who the heck would had that?

The only way this could be more Canadian would be to somehow involve Tim Horton's and/or poutine.

This is NOT how you get genuine Saskatchewan Seal Skin. Canadian Club. HA!
Lol

Welcome to the Hotel Saskatchewan,
Such a lovely place.
Living it up at the Hotel Saskatchewan,
What a nice surprise.

Ok, so is that a future video, comparing and contrasting this drink using different sugars? I’d love to see that!
Only in Saskatchewan do they refer to hoodies as bunny hugs lol.
As far as I know, it needs to be furry on the inside to be a Bunny Hug, no?
I appreciate the bunnyhug!

We have some Bulleit Rye, I'll have to try this. Seems pretty medicinal since it has honey and lemon in it.

The maple syrup is also much easier to get into the shaker!

This is basically my hot toddy recipe, only I use boiling water instead of the ice. That makes it a great winter warm-me-up cocktail.
Bunny hug… love it
I was today years old when I learned that a hoodie is called a bunnie hug in Saskatchewan
Bunny hug - that's a new one for me. In the US, we call them hoodies.
And don’t you regret that now?
Think about it-which phrase is scarier:
A) Three youths in hoodies walked through the dark towards us
B) Three youths in bunnyhugs walked through the dark towards us
Once you throw “bunnyhug” in there it’s tough to maintain that level of dread.
its called that in a particular province of canada - saskatchewan where this drink was made.
They're called Hoodie in Canada as well. In Saskatchewan they're called Bunny hugs. it's a regional thing.

TIL that "Bunny Hug" is a thing! The natural follow-up question: Is there a "Bunny Hug" cocktail?
A version of a Gold Rush (my personal favorite cocktail) which is a version of a bee’s knees and so on and so on… suffice to say what the combo of honey and lemon does with most spirits is exquisite
Going to have to try this, seems like a less sweet version of my favorite whiskey drink a Gold Rush.
Instead of stirring in ice add hot water and you have my favorite hot toddy when I have a cold.
Ahem, freshly Squozen
We like Bee’s Knees a lot but I prefer whiskey…so I’ve been making something like this for years. It’s great with an egg white.
Always fascinating
I would need a double in order to wear a Leafs Jersey.
🤔I wonder how well agave syrup would work in that. Thanks for the video.
Bunnyhug!
Nice, almost a simplified rye sour. I wonder if the Dillons would be better in a Penicillin-like build where there's some other flavours to compete/blend with.
!ALGORITHM!
I was thinking this a rye bees knees and see that others thought that too
That seems like a cold hot toddy
Make a honey syrup: equal parts honey and water. Heat up and there you go. No issue with stickiness.
That’s what we’d do today, but in this case that’s not what was asked for. A honey syrup would have changed the sweetness a bit.

Go leafs go
Oh boy - don't jinx it, this is the year!
But I've been saying that every year of my life.

Cold Toddy
Could "liquid honey" be a 1:1 honey syrup?
I know that's commonly used when bartenders historically wanted to add honey to drinks.
I looked it up based on cross checking other period cocktail recipes, and it appears to be a distinction between solid or whipped honey and the liquid that I’m using here. Honey syrup doesn’t seem to show up until much later.
“Liquid Honey?” As opposed to what? Solid honey? Gaseous honey?
Yes.
'Liquid Honey' as opposed to 'Natural Honey' or 'Creamed Honey' or 'Crystalised Honey'
I know you were trying to be facetious, but there really are different grades / styles of honey based on their consistency and wether they flow freely at room temperature.
What's a bunny hug? A sweatshirt?
.
So basically someone couldn't be bothered to add hot water and make a Toddy?! Lazy, imo!
