Yum! As a alternative from dark rum's molasses-leaning flavor (think Gosling's Black Seal, or Cruzan's Black Strap), sometime try a lighter - but still spiced- rum like Sailor Jerry. There are notes of vanilla in Sailor Jerry's that heighten the appleness (?) of the hard cider. I order a pint of cider & a shot of Sailor Jerry, sip down the cider an inch, and pour the shot into the cider. No ice. I call it a "Jerry Bomb", although actually dropping the shot glass into the pint isn't necessary. LOL

I added less rum because the first time it was too strong. Very simple and a nice drink in the winter. Thanks for sharing.

This was very good, but strong :) We enjoyed this during our New Year's Day feast! Made for Comfort Cafe, January 2010!

The rum was to strong for me in this drink. Loved the hard cider. But I doctored it and was able to drink it. Made for *1-2-3 Hit Wonders* game 2007

I used Captian Morgan spiced rum and a hard apple cider. One glass was enough to make me woozy! Good taste and perfect for a fall evening.

Just lovely. My typical rum/cider combination has been heated and spiced, which is wonderful, but over ice is just as nice! Thanks for posting!

Sorry MarraMamba but it would be unfair for me to rate this recipe as after trying again I have decided that I really don't like dark rum. Would like to make this again soon with our Australian Bunderburg rum and see if we like it better.

This is fantastic! The flavours work so well together! I used Magners cider and LOADS of ice and have also fallen in love! I probably used sliiightly less rum as it was all I had left in the bottle (unfortunately). A definite keeper - thanks MarraMamba!
