Ingredients for Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum

Method

Directions to Make Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients and ensure they are ready for infusion.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large glass jar or bottle, combine the rum, vanilla bean (split open), cinnamon stick, cloves, nutmeg (grated), brown sugar, orange peel, and star anise.

  3. 3

    Infuse the Mixture

    Seal the jar tightly and shake gently to mix all the ingredients. Allow the mixture to infuse in a cool, dark place for at least 5 days, shaking the jar every day.

  4. 4

    Taste and Adjust

    After 5 days, taste the rum. If you desire a stronger flavor, continue to infuse for an additional 2-3 days.

  5. 5

    Strain and Bottle

    Once the infusion is to your liking, strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove the solids. Transfer the spiced rum into a clean bottle.

  6. 6

    Serve and Enjoy

    Your Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum is ready to be enjoyed! Serve neat, on the rocks, or use it in cocktails.
