How about a sweet drink to start your Thanksgiving break off with...
Hot Spiced Cider
What you need:
3 cups apple cider
2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 cup apple brandy (or a bit more depending on your tastes)
Combine cider, nutmeg, cinnamon sticks, and brown sugar in a pot. Simmer covered for 10 minutes stirring occasionally (you don’t want the sugars to burn). Next, stir in the brandy, turn up heat to medium until the mixture is hot; again keep an eye on it via stirring. Ladle into mugs and serve. If you’re trying to impress a lady (or her family) garnish each mug with a fresh cinnamon stick and a peeled slice of apple. You can also substitute dark rum for brandy.
