Inspired by the Flaming Rum Punch Clarence tries to order in It's a Wonderful Life and the much revered Godalming's Burnt Rum Punch that Renfield attributes to Arthur Holmwood's father in Stoker's novel Dracula. I think this iteration is pretty close to what I'll be bringing out on the Thanksgiving camping trip. Hillsborough Hot Rum Punch (single serving) • 3-4 oz very hot weak orange pekoe and cut black tea steeped with 3 whole cloves • 0.75 oz cinnamon demerara simple syrup • 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice and muddled peel to extract essential oils • 1 oz Coruba Rum • 0.25 oz Batavia Arrack • 0.5 oz Cognac Combine all ingredients except tea in a heat-proof mug. Add tea, stir, drink. Hitting the spot on a 46 degree night — something us Florida folks aren't very used to.
