This is a great drink to drink down before sledding with the kids. I’ve even had two if I’m planning on falling off the sled and just laying there in the snow…not getting up…looking at the stars…all while other sleds whized by dangerously close to my head. This drink can only be consumed if the mercury dips below 30 and you somehow want to enjoy yourself.

Here we go –

• 2 ½ oz Dark Rum
• 1 twist of lemon peel
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 3 cloves
• apple cider
• 1 tablespoon butter
• nutmeg

Put rum, lemon peel, cinnamon, and cloves in a big ole’ mug. Heat the cider to near boiling and pour into the spiced rum, add butter and stir. Put on your gloves and your hat, ya fool…you’ll catch your death of cold.
