Welcome to day two of The Twelve Boozy Days of Christmas!
Today I’m going to showcase a very classic winter drink – Mulled Cider. It’s filled with warm spices, hints of lemon and of course a little booze 🙂 Spiced rum to be exact. Nothing wrong with that in my book!
This recipe is enough to serve eight guests or to have one drunk night by yourself 🙂

I love cider and I love rum… this looks sooo good!
oooh this looks great! I loved mulled cider and now that it’s turned cold and yucky in Ohio, this will be perfect!
this looks great…. right now i’m leaning toward the one drunk night by my self. 🙂
This looks awesome. Cider and rum….yum!
After the horrible exam I just took…I think I’m veering towards one drunken night. This cider sounds delicious! I love the spices in it.
I don’t know why, but this makes me wonder: do you have a good spiced apple recipe?
What a great warming drink on a cold winter’s day. I love all the spices.
