This was supposed to be posted on Friday.
I had the idea and the ingredients last week but did not get around to making it.
We had an intramural volleyball game on Thursday night and I decided it would not help our chances of victory if we had a cocktail before.
Although after losing all three games, I don't think it would have hurt.
In fact, I'm surprised I didn't go home and drown my sorrows in a warm cup of this spiced cider.
Mulled Cider with Spiced Rum
(makes 2)
20 oz apple cider
lemon rind
whole cloves
pinch of allspice
cinnamon stick
1 ½ oz spiced rum
Stud the lemon rind with cloves. Add the rind to a medium saucepan with the apple cider and allspice. Bring to a simmer - you should be able to smell the lemon zest and spices. Pour into mugs and add the spiced rum. Garnish with a cinnamon stick.
