From the Platinum Hotel and Spa in Las Vegas. Found the recipe in the Southwest Airlines magazine. I haven't tried it but allegedly it tastes like chilled apple cider mixed with pumpkin pie spices...crisp and refreshing. Can use spiced cider mix in place of the mulling spices.
Ingredients:
lemon wedge
1/4 cup mulling spices
orange peel, spiral
2 dashes angostura bitters or 2 dashes other bitters
2 ounces spiced rum
1 ounce citrus-infused vodka
3 ounces spiced apple cider, chilled
Directions:
1. Pour mulling spices/spiced cider mix into a saucer. Run the lemon wedge around the rim of a chilled martini glass to moisten. Turn the class upside down, rotate its rim through the spices, then turn the glass right-side up.
2. Twist the orange spiral over the glass to release the oils from the orange skin, set the spiral aside, then add the bitters.
3. In a shaker half-filled with cracked ice; combine the rum, vodka and cider. Shake well and strain into the martini galss.
4. Garnish the glass with the orange spiral.
5. If desired add a light squeeze from the lemon wedge.
6. Makes one 6-ounce Indian Summer.
