This has been the year of the to-go cocktail, and there’s no reason for that to end now. Spiking your thermos
with a nip of the good stuff is how we’re going to survive this socially distanced winter. But before dumping out the lukewarm coffee currently in your thermos for something punchier, promise us two things:
One: You’re either drinking these at home or have a designated driver.
Two: You know that alcohol is not a warming strategy, even if it feels that way. (Alcohol is a vasodilator and does the opposite of warming you. Drunkenness has been an accomplice in many hypothermia deaths.) Bundle up and keep your drinking reasonable so you don’t make poor choices in the cold.
