Sometimes even Santa needs a little help, and this rum-spiked cocktail is sure to do the trick.

Santa’s Little Helper 
3 oz. cold milk
½ oz. aged rum (Roach uses Flor de Cana 4 year)
½ oz. rich demerara syrup (2:1)
1/8 oz. allspice dram

Combine ingredients in a cordial glass, stir and top with fresh grated nutmeg.
