Hot Buttered Rum

1 Lemon Twist
1 Stick of Cinnamon
1 Clove
Boiling Cider
2 oz. Rum*
Pat of Butter**

In a mug or pewter tankard, add spices and rum. Fill with cider & float Butter in top.
Notes from Marlen:
There are versions out there using vanilla ice cream but I prefer it this way.
*I prefer dark rum but either will do
**NEVER margarine!!
*****************
This one is good and easy to make in a crockpot!

Mulled Wine

2 bottles dry red wine, like Cabernet Sauvignon
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup water
1 square (8 inches) double-thickness cheesecloth
Peel of 1 orange
1 cinnamon stick, broken into halves
8 whole cloves
1 whole nutmeg
Orange slices, optional

Combine wine, corn syrup, and water in slow cooker. Rinse cheesecloth; squeeze out water. Wrap orange peel, cinnamon stick halves, cloves, and nutmeg in cheesecloth. Tie securely with cotton string or strip of cheesecloth. Add to slow cooker. Cover and cook on HIGH 2 to 2.5 hours. Discard spice bag; ladle into glasses. Garnish with orange slices, if desired.

cinnamon tea with Hot Damn(I believe it is a cinnamon snopts) or you could also make the tea and put tequilla in it.

It was fun reading all of this, especially since it goes back to '06. That first post of Lars with the cherry cream soda...yummmy. I only consume coffee if it's ice cream, Kahlua or some other dessert. I like tea, black, green, but not any spiced teas. Really dislike mint too. Mostly I drink flavored unsweetened seltzer, iced tea or lemonade. Occasionally I'll have a fruit soda, but I find them too sweet these days so I mix them with my seltzer. Alcohol? Not really. Don't like wine as a rule. I can deal with a little champagne or Asti. Will drink vodka, that Kahlua making it a Black Russian. Smiles. I can go several years or more without having any alcohol. Last year I turned my current [at the time] vodka into vanilla. This fall an old friend from high school came to visit and brought a bottle of vodka. I had 2 light Cape Cods and when he left I turned the Svedka into vanilla. LOL. In winter in the evening we either have hot tea or hot cocoa often. I do love hot chocolate made with cocoa or even a nice chocolate bar.

Wedding Rehearsal Dinner and Alcohol

I'm a MOG this year, too -- No, etiquette doesn't require you to serve alcohol. But -- and this depends upon your group; you know them, I don't -- some people may be disappointed. And although we and our crowd aren't big drinkers, I have to admit that alcohol does tend to make a party more festive and fun. Do they require you to have a full bar or nothing? See if you can negotiate. A limited drinks menu is much cheaper, both for the alcohol and for the number of servers needed. Our plans aren't finalized yet, but I am figuring on beer, wine, sangria, and perhaps a signature cocktail at the "rehearsal" dinner. (I put the quotes in because it's just a big, casual party for all the out of town guests the night before the wedding -- the rehearsal will have been the day before.) We will probably have 150 people (all our many relatives are out of towners).

Drinking warm lemon water
Q
Comments (8)
I don't care for plain water unless I'm really thirsty, so I drink lemon water instead--just a few drops added from the bottled lemon juice. In cold weather, I warm it in the MW, whatever the time of day. My sister mentioned that acidic drinks, including fruit juices, are hard on tooth enamel, so I don't sip--I usually try to drink it down. She has several co-workers who will only drink, coffee, tea, soft drinks, and juice through straws. My teeth are sensitive to cold, another reason I prefer the warm water.

my two favorites are a Peppermint patty, which is just hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps with a candycane stuck in, whipped cream and shaved chocolate on top, and a version of hot buttered rum thusly made:
Mix in a bowl 1 stick butter, 1 cup dark bown sugar, 1t each nutmeg, cardamom and ground cloves, 1.5t cinnamon. Mix well and refrigerate. Boil a mug of water and pour off enough to add a tablespoon of the butter mix and a tot of good rum.
The rum makes a lot of difference, so don't use the cheap stuff.

Hot toddy....
scant teaspoon sugar in a double old fashioned glass, dash of Angastora bitters ( optional) generous wedge of lemon, cinnamon stick, shot of bourbon and fill with hot water.
Squeeze the lemon if you wish.
There is also tom and Jerry....but I don't know how to make them......just know eggs, sugar milk and booze of some sort! LOL!
