Categories     Rum     Hot Drink     Alcoholic     Thanksgiving     Cranberry     Spice     Winter     Gourmet     Drink

Yield Serves 14

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 qt cranberry juice cocktail
3/4 cup sugar
3 (3 1/2-inch) cinnamon sticks
4 whole star anise
1 (3-inch) piece gingerroot, peeled and thinly sliced
2 cups amber or dark rum

Steps:

  • Bring cranberry juice, sugar, spices, and ginger to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then simmer, covered, 10 minutes. Stir in rum and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor than frozen or dried cranberries. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but thaw them completely before using.
  • Simmer the cranberries and spices for at least 15 minutes. This will help to extract the flavor from the cranberries and spices.
  • Use a good quality brandy or whiskey. The quality of the brandy or whiskey will affect the flavor of the toddy. Choose a brandy or whiskey that you enjoy drinking neat.
  • Serve the toddy hot. A hot toddy is best enjoyed when it is hot and steamy. Serve it in a mug or glass that will keep it warm.
  • Garnish the toddy with a cinnamon stick or orange slice. This will add a festive touch to the drink.
