Easy Mulled Cider

Serves: 10-12

Difficulty: Easy

Prep Time: 5 Minutes

Cook Time: 40 Minutes

You won’t believe what an orange peel and three little cloves will do to two quarts of cider!

1 large orange

3 whole cloves

2¾ cups orange juice

8 cups apple cider/juice

¼ cup raisins

1 cinnamon stick

Peel the skin from the orange, leaving as much of the white pith behind as possible. Stick the cloves through the skin. Squeeze the juice from the orange and add it to the 2¾ cups orange juice. Place all the ingredients in a large, non-reactive pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Remove the pot from heat, cover and allow the flavors to blend for 30 minutes. Serve warm or cold.

Notes

Strain the mulled cider before serving to avoid any rogue raisins.

This should keep in the fridge for a week or so.

The cider can be kept warm in a saucepan over very low heat or in a slow cooker.
