Mulled Rum Punch
With the festive season almost over, it definitely feels like a major bummer for most of us. So I decided to make something that would cheer me up, since the weather in Pune continues to be quite awesome.
I’ve always heard about about people making mulled wine, but what I love about this recipe apart from it being super simple to make, is that it’s made with rum, not wine and I always appreciate something unique and different from the usual norm. And trust me when I say this stuff tastes very good!
I have to give credit to my friend (You know who you are!) who suggested that I make this during the season. Unfortunately, I never got down to doing so with all the excitement, shopping and hysteria of Christmas and New Year. But you know what they say, It’s better late than never!
Here’s how you make the Mulled Rum Punch:
INGREDIENTS:
3 1/2 Cups of Boiling Water
1 1/4 Cups of Spiced Rum (Or Plain Rum)
