"Safe as anything, aye-- even the mince." Jack raises a finger to accent the point as he adds,

"And there's even something what's all spiced and mulled in the way of apple cider with cinnamon, might suit your tastes for the season." A beat, and he finishes,

"Even if it doesn't have rum in. 'Course, that just means it can be added to taste."

Or not, given Wellard's predilections, which Jack knows perfectly well. There's a reason the cider's not already 'spirited,' after all.
