How to Make Rum Coffee Muffins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 18-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Brew 1 cup strong coffee and let it cool slightly. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, ¾ cup packed brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup sour cream, ½ cup dark rum, and the cooled coffee.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
