Have made this twice. Second time I made my own lemonade concentrate with fresh lemon juice, sugar and water--turned out great again!

Soothing and warm drink.

This recipe had so much flavor! My guests loved it! However, I think I would add less orange juice next time.

This is a wonderful recipe. Great flavor and easy to make. My guests raved about this all night! I put spiced rum and southern comfort on the side for anyone to add if they chose. I am definitely keeping this recipe for entertaining!
