Heated Affair
Created by Jacques Bezuidenhout

*Party tip: double, triple or quadruple this recipe ahead of time and keep warmed in a crock pot or pot over low heat and serve to guests. By pre-batching you'll be able to spend more time entertaining and interacting with guests than you will tending bar!

Ingredients:
2 oz. Partida Anejo Tequila
6 oz. Hot Spiced Apple Cider
Heavy Cream

Procedures:
In a small warm wine glass add Tequila and hot apple cider. Float heavy cream. Garnish: Grate fresh Nutmeg over cream.

Apple Cider Preparation:
In a pot add Organic Apple Juice. Add winter spices like Cloves, Cinnamon Stick, All Spice, and Orange Peel. Start of by adding a few cloves, one cinnamon stick etc. so as to find the right-spiced apple cider flavor. You can always add more spice later. Bring everything to a low heat for about 15mins. Taste for flavor. When the desired flavor is reached then take off stove. Strain out all the spices and orange peel. Serve warm and enjoy!
