Cocktail Description
A British Christmas tradition transformed into a luscious, creamy cocktail that tastes like the holidays in liquid form.
The Mincemeat Delight blends the rich aged character of Appleton Estate rum with the warm spices and dried fruits of Robertson's mincemeat, creating a surprisingly sophisticated drink. Fresh apple juice brightens the mix while the cream float adds a silky texture that gradually filters through the cocktail as you sip. This relatively simple cocktail requires only basic shaking technique, though achieving the perfect cream float might take a gentle hand. It's ideal for Christmas gatherings or autumn evenings when you're craving something festive but not overly sweet. The Mincemeat Delight pairs beautifully with buttery shortbread cookies, vanilla ice cream, or even a cheese board featuring aged cheddar and blue cheese.
