So yesterday I
rantedtold you how to make sure your holiday party doesn’t suck. Part of that was making some boozy concoction to share. Here’s a great recipe from my friend Nate that certainly greased my proverbial wheels this Thanksgiving.CRAN-APPLE CiderSERVES 161 Gallon Jug of Apple Cider/Juice4 Cups Cranberry Cider4 Cups of Orange Juice1 Bottle Captain Morgan’s Spiced Rum1LB Fresh Cranberries4 Nectarines or in my case I used Oranges/Pears since Nectarines weren’t in season4 Apples3 Tablespoons Cinnamon2 Tablespoon Fresh GingerCinnamon Sticks (garnish)
1) On Low Heat, pour 1/2 cup of Spiced Rum into a large pot. Add in Cranberries. Use a masher or a large spoon and break open some of the cranberries.
2) After about 10 minutes, stir in Apple Cider, Cranberry Cider & Orange Juice.
3) Get to a point where the drink is luke warm and mix in half of your spices (1.5 Tablespoon Cinnamon, 1 Tablespoon Ginger). Simmer until hot.
4) Cut up Apples into 1x1 inch squares/triangles/trapezoids.5) Once drink is hot, stir in Fresh Apples, Rum, remaining spices.6) Slice Nectarines in half. Squeeze fruit into the pot.
7) After 15 minutes, drink should be done. Garnish “in cup” with cinnamon sticks.Cheers Christmas Dudes and Dudettes,ChinaeI -
