holiday cider punch

when i bake cookies, my place is total chaos.

first of all, flour and sugar somehow end up everywhere

(including all over the floor and my inevitably black workout pants)

and i never bake just one batch of cookies.

it always seems like i'm doubling the recipe,

or also making 3 other versions at the same time.

all this to say... 

if you're anything like me

you need a cocktail while you're in the kitchen :)

this is the perfect holiday beverage for the busy cook!

why? it's easy, festive and oh so refreshing!

enjoy :)

recipe via not without salt

ingredients

spiced rum

apple cider

cinnamon 

nutmeg

apple

bitters, optional

*this can be served hot or cold... 

i make the cold version as my apartment

 is always 100 degrees while baking cookies,

but feel free to heat your cider first as well for a cozy cocktail :)

directions

1. fill glass with ice and desired amount of rum (1-2 shots)

add cider in a 1:4 ratio to your rum.

sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg

garnish with apple slices and bitters (if desired)

2. enjoy!
