CELEBRATION HOT RUM BUTTERED CIDER - CIDER HOT TODDY
This spiced and hot rum buttered cider toddy is a wonderful drink throughout the cold winter months, and is perfect during the Festive Holiday Season as well. I use Scrumpy or local French Breton cloudy cider for this, which I believe is called Hard Cider in North America. Serve the hot rum buttered cider toddy in attractive warmed glasses and float a cinnamon stick on the top for that extra touch!

Tips:
- Choose a high-quality cider. The better the cider, the better the hot cider will be. Look for a cider that is made from fresh apples and has a good balance of sweetness and acidity.
- Use a variety of spices. The spices that you use will add flavor and depth to the hot cider. Some popular choices include cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice.
- Don't boil the cider. Boiling the cider will destroy the flavor. Instead, heat it gently over low heat until it is just simmering.
- Add the rum after the cider has simmered. This will prevent the alcohol from evaporating.
- Serve the hot cider immediately. Hot cider is best enjoyed fresh. Garnish with a cinnamon stick or a slice of orange for a festive touch.
