Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Spiced rum
  • 3 oz Club Soda
  • 1 oz Lemon Juice
  • 1 oz Apple Juice
  • Pinch of Ground Nutmeg
  • 2 Whole Cloves
  • 1 Sugar Cube
  • Apple Slices for garnish
  • Cinnamon Stick for garnish
  • Pumpkin Seeds for garnish

Instructions

  • In a mixing glass, muddle the sugar cube, cloves, and 1 ounce of club soda until the sugar dissolves and the cloves release their flavor.
  • Add the spiced rum, ground nutmeg, lemon juice, apple juice, and ice to the mixing glass. Stir until the mixture is well-chilled.
  • Strain the punch into a mug glass.
  • Top with the remaining 2 ounces of club soda for a fizzy finish.
  • Garnish with apple slices, a cinnamon stick, and a few pumpkin seeds for an autumnal touch.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • For a stronger clove flavor, allow the cloves to steep in the mixture for a few extra minutes before straining.
  • To enhance the presentation, float thin apple slices on the surface of the drink and lightly toast the pumpkin seeds before using them as garnish.
  • If you prefer a sweeter punch, use apple cider instead of apple juice for a richer flavor.
