We made this with the rum . . . and a scoop of honey ice cream . . . it really hit the spot! Four stars? Yes! Worthy of a special occasion? Sure - but also for every day! (well, maybe not every day!)
Pomegranate-Apple Cider Toddy
A hot beverage is often just what we want in cold weather or at the onset of a bout of cold or flu. This hot drink offers warm spice with cloves and sweet cinnamon. Substitute 1/3 cup rum for the apple cider if you'd like an alcoholic version.
