Cranberry Hot Toddy Recipe-February 2024-www.zdask.com

　　We preferred pure cranberry juice in this recipe but it's possible to substitute the more commonly available cranberry juice cocktail — simply omit the sugar called for.

Ingredients

<p>Makes 16 cups</p>

　　4 tangerines

　　1/3 cup whole cloves

　　3 quarts pure unsweetened cranberry juice

　　2 cups sugar, or to taste

　　3 cups amber rum if desired

Step 1

Cut tangerines crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and remove seeds. Stud rind of each tangerine round with 4 or 5 cloves. In a large saucepan, simmer cranberry juice, tangerine rounds, and sugar, covered, 5 minutes. Stir in rum.

Step 2

Serve toddies with clove-studded tangerine rounds in heatproof glasses.
