How to Make Tea Grog
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Stir in 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is fragrant.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely.
- Store the spiced grog mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- To serve, combine 1 teaspoon of the grog mixture, 1 strip of orange peel, and 1 strip of lemon peel in each mug.
- Add 6 ounces of hot black tea (or cinnamon-flavored tea for extra warmth!), stirring gently to combine.
- Optionally add 1 tablespoon of milk or cream, and/or 1/8 teaspoon of rum extract per mug.
- Variation: For a bolder nutmeg and clove flavor, omit the allspice and cinnamon and use 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves.
