Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, add the sugar to the cider and whisk until dissolved.
Stir in milk and nutmeg.
Add cream and whisk until a thickened, foamy layer of cream forms on top of the mixture.
Spoon the layer of cream into a small bowl and set aside.
Pour the remaining cider/milk mixture into serving glasses, filling the glasses no more than three-quarters of the way full.
Top each glass with a dollop of the cream topping.
Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve.
