Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups apple cider
- 1 cup dark rum
- 0.5 cup raisins
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 sticks cinnamon sticks
- 6 pieces whole cloves
- 4 pieces orange slices
- 0.25 teaspoons nutmeg
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the apple cider, raisins, brown sugar, cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, orange slices, and nutmeg.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to ensure the sugar dissolves.
Once the cider begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and let it cook for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully strain the cider through a fine mesh sieve to remove the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and any orange slices, if desired.
Stir in the dark rum until well combined.
Divide the warm rum raisin cider among four mugs or heatproof glasses.
Garnish with a fresh cinnamon stick or a thin orange slice and serve immediately. Enjoy!
