Indian Summer Cocktail

Submitted by BarbryT

"From the Platinum Hotel and Spa in Las Vegas. Found the recipe in the Southwest Airlines magazine. I haven't tried it but allegedly it "tastes like chilled apple cider mixed with pumpkin pie spices...crisp and refreshing." Can use spiced cider mix in place of the mulling spices."

 

• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• lemon wedge
• 59.14 ml mulling spices
• orange peel, spiral
• 0.5 ml Angostura bitters or 0.5 ml other bitters
• 56.69 g spiced rum
• 28.34 g citrus-infused vodka
• 85.04 g spiced apple cider, chilled

directions

1. Pour mulling spices/spiced cider mix into a saucer. Run the lemon wedge around the rim of a chilled martini glass to moisten. Turn the class upside down, rotate its rim through the spices, then turn the glass right-side up.
2. Twist the orange spiral over the glass to release the oils from the orange skin, set the spiral aside, then add the bitters.
3. In a shaker half-filled with cracked ice; combine the rum, vodka and cider. Shake well and strain into the martini galss.
4. Garnish the glass with the orange spiral.
5. If desired add a light squeeze from the lemon wedge.
6. Makes one 6-ounce Indian Summer.

This was very good and easy to put together. I omitted the bitters cause I don't like the taste of them, but overall a good brunch drink. thanks BarbryT.
