Grog is traditionally made with citrus juice, rum, and beer, but we like the use of tea instead of beer (not that we have anything against it, but why use beer when you can have tea?). The combination of peach and lemon provides a sweet and tart complement to the spice of the rum.
Served hot, this beverage is perfect for holiday entertaining or chilly nights around the fire. Make individual mugs as per the recipe below, or quadruple the recipe and keep it warm in your crock pot.
