Today is the first day of Fall. Not sure how I feel about that. I love changing seasons and colorful leaves and all, but I’m not ready to put away the bathing suits and frozen drinks just yet! Sigh… Anyway, guess it’s time to start thinking about fall flavors. We won’t start the pumpkin stuff just yet, but how about a warm cup of coffee with rum, cinnamon and nutmeg? Mmmm. Still not happy about summer being over, but I must admit, cup of Hot Rum & Chocolate Coffee sounds pretty good right now!

Hot Rum & Chocolate Coffee

Servings:

Ingredients

1 1/2 c. Hot Coffee
1/4 c. Whole Milk
2 tsp. Sugar
1/8 tsp. Cinnamon
1/8 tsp. Nutmeg
1 3/4 oz. Gold Rum (we used Mount Gay Eclipse)
Grated Chocolate for Garnish (we used Ghiradelli 72%)

Instructions

In a saucepan over low heat, stir together the hot coffee, whole milk and sugar until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is nice and warm.
Add the cinnamon, nutmeg and rum and stir again until warm.
Pour into a mug and top with grated chocolate (and whipped cream, if you wish!)
If you want to make the drink even more chocolatey, add 1 tsp of chocolate sauce to the saucepan with the coffee, whole milk and sugar. (Calories don't count in the winter, right?!)
