Spiced Apple Cider

  • Combine everything: In a large, non-reactive pot, toss in all your ingredients. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Let it bubble away for about 5 minutes.
  • Simmer: Cover the pot, turn the heat down to low, and let it simmer gently for 30-40 minutes to let all those flavors blend together.
  • Strain: Line a colander with cheesecloth and strain the cider to catch any spices or solids.
  • Serve: Pour the cider into mugs and serve it warm. And hey, if it’s been one of those days, go ahead and spike it with a splash of dark rum for a little extra warmth!
