7 cups apple cider
1/3 cups brown sugar
4 cinnamon sticks
1 tsp whole cloves
1 tsp whole allspice
3 strips lemon peel

1 1/2 cup dark rum
1 tbsp butter

Combine apple cider or apple juice and brown sugar in a large saucepan. For spice bag, tie cinnamon, allspice, cloves, and lemon peel in a 7 inch square of 100 percent cotton cheesecloth. Add spice bag to cider mixture. Bring cider mixture to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove and discard spice bag. Stir in rum. Pour cider mixture into mugs.
