I got this one from http://www.themodernmixologist.com

Hot Spiced Cider

1 750 Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum
1 gallon apple cider
1/2 cup clover honey
5 cinnamon sticks
30 whole cloves
1/2 vanilla bean
(serves 15)

Start by breaking the cinnamon sticks and cloves and bruising the vanilla bean.

Next make a bag (with cheesecloth) with the spices.

In a large saucepan combine cider, honey and spice bag, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.

Add Spiced Rum and serve in heated mugs with a cinnamon stick garnish.

......personally I would skip the bag and the whole saucepan and throw it in a crock pot and then strain out the spices with a slotted spoon.

But it sounds delish!
