Ingredients
- 50 mls spiced rum

- 50 mls apple juice
- 2 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1 slice apple

- Finely dice the stem ginger until it is almost a puree.
- Warm the spiced rum, Cointreau, apple juice, pureed ginger and bitters together. Do not boil.
- Thinly slice a centre piece of apple and add in as a garnish.
- Carefully put the warm cocktail into the tumbler. Finish with a sprig of rosemary.
Notes
A great alternative to the brown sugar on the rim of the glass is a little crushed ginger nut biscuit. Stunning.
