Candy Cane Infused Rum

Last spring we infused our first batch of Strawberry Rum and loved it, so as the holidays rolled around, we began thinking of infusing rum with a holiday taste, such as Candy Cane.  We tried it out and found it’s easy to put together and if you divided it into small 8 oz. mason jars with lids, would make great little gifts for your rum drinking friends. Just add a ribbon with a candy cane and maybe a recipe and voilà!

Talk about getting into the holiday spirit(s)!

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Arrange the candy canes on the bottom of a glass jar.
  • Add the rum, then seal the jar with the lid.
  • Gently shake every once in a while. When the candy canes have dissolved, the rum is infused. Ours took only about 12 hours. The finished product is a nice light red color and is good for sipping or could be used in some holiday recipes.
