This spiced and hot rum buttered cider toddy is a wonderful drink throughout the cold winter months, and is perfect during the Festive Holiday Season as well.

Serve the hot rum buttered cider toddy in attractive warmed glasses and float a cinnamon stick on the top for that extra touch!

Tips:

  • Choose the right oranges: Use navel oranges for a sweeter flavor and a thinner rind, making them easier to zest.
  • Zest the oranges finely: This will help release the citrus oils and add more flavor to your dish.
  • Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger provides a more intense flavor compared to ground ginger.
  • Filter the cider: Straining the mulled cider through a cheesecloth or fine-mesh sieve will remove any solids, resulting in a smoother drink.
  • Garnish with orange slices and cinnamon sticks: This adds a festive touch and extra flavor to your cider.

Conclusion:

Buttered Orange Cider is warm, comforting and packed with citrusy goodness. With its blend of fresh oranges, ginger, mulling spices and apple cider, this unique take on mulled cider is perfect for the holiday season or any chilly evening. And the addition of butter adds a touch of richness and creaminess that makes it truly special.
