<<"hot apple cider with melted butter and brown sugar mixed in."

 Huh? Did you really say melted butter? In apple cider? I'm, er,
 fascinated. Doesn't it glomm together
 on the surface? Or do you have to stirr it with a Sirius Special Coffee
 Stick to create an instant
 emulsion?>>

Hmmm. I haven't tried that special stirer. Actually, the cider only
has a little bit of butter (about a tablespoon for 6-8 oz of cider)
and about as much brown sugar. It does help to stir it once in a while,
just as it helps to stir hot chocolate (to keep the dregs from sinking
to the bottom). However, if you drink it while it's still hot, the butter
doesn't have time to glomm onto the surface.
