Mulled Cider
This particular formulation was a non-alcoholic side to my mulled wine, based partly on that and partly on the perfect mulled apple cider recipe.
Ingredients
Serves 12.
- 1 gallon fresh apple cider
- 6 cinnamon sticks
- 24 whole cloves
- 24 whole allspice
- 12 star anise
- 6 cardamom pods
- a slice of fresh ginger
- a slice of orange or lime (with peel)
Directions
- Simmer all ingredients one or more hours on high in a crockpot, several hours on low, or one hour on low heat on a stovetop.
- Preferably, serve through a strainer.
- After the first round, remove any citrus.
- Hold on low or warm (crockpot), or over a low flame.
Variants
Add a vanilla bean.
Top with ground nutmeg.
