In a small pot, heat the apple juice, spices, and rum (if using) over low/medium heat. Stir often while the mixture is heating so the spices will blend into the juice (you don’t want any spice clumps).

Once it’s hot, pour into two mugs and garnish with apple slices and cinnamon sticks. Serve warm, while wearing a turtleneck sweater (Note: turtleneck sweater is optional). Cheers!
