Ingredients
 
 

For cocktail:

  • 8 ounces prune juice
  • 3 ounces spiced rum
  • 1 medium orange for juice and garnish
  • 1 cinnamon stick

For garnish:

  • 2 prunes
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 3 TBSP sugar
  • Remaining 1 TBSP orange juice

Instructions
 

  • Using a vegetable peeler or a small, sharp knife, carefully cut 4 strips of zest (remove any white pith) from the orange, then juice the orange (yielding at least 3-4 ounces (about 120 ml) , reserving 1 TBSP).
  • Pour the prune juice, spiced rum and fresh orange juice into a small saucepan, and then add the cinnamon stick and two strips of the orange zest.
  • Warm over medium-low heat (slight simmer) for 5 minutes.
  • While the cocktails are warming, prepare the sugar plums by rolling two prunes in the remaining 1 TBSP orange juice (or water will work) and set on a plate, sprinkle with sugar to coat, and allow to dry for 30 seconds, then sprinkle with sugar again.
  • Divide the cocktail between two mugs. Garnish each mug with a piece of orange zest and a sugar plum on a cocktail pick, and a cinnamon stick.

Notes

 
Pair with Spiced Prune Snack Cake for an extra cozy evening!
