Equipment

Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a large pot, combine the apple cider, cinnamon stick, star anise, cloves, and orange slices.
  • Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it continue to heat for 20 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse.
  • Remove from heat and ladle the hot spiced cider into heat-resistant mugs. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

Pro Tips
  • For deeper flavor, let the cider simmer longer, up to 30 minutes.
  • Garnish each mug with an extra cinnamon stick or a fresh orange slice for an added festive touch.
  • Strain the cider before serving if you prefer a smoother drink without the whole spices.
