We went apple picking at Wilkens Farm in Yorktown Heights, New York about two weeks ago. We picked our fill of apples — and then some — and were checking out the store when we stopped and saw some cider.
That would go great with rum, Pete said.
And so, the idea for spiced apple cider (which I kept calling spiked apple cider in my mind — which it is, really, Pete says) was born.
Spiced Apple Cider
What You’ll Need:
- Half gallon of apple cider
- 1oz. Spiced rum
- 1 tbs. honey
- 1/8 tbs. ground
- 1/4 tbs. ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tbs. lemon juice
What You’ll Do:
- Bring the cider with spices to a boil.
- Add honey when the cider is warm so it dissolves.
- Pour into your favorite mug.
- Add rum.
- Get drunk.
Like spiked drinks?

My daughter moved to Yorktown Heights a year ago - I'll have to make sure she knows about this orchard! She's always looking for new things to do there.
