Hot Apple Cider (Mulled Apple Cider)

mulling spices

apple slices, orange slices, and cinnamon sticks for garnish

Pour fresh apple cider in a heavy-bottom saucepan (or slow cooker) and set on medium-high heat.

Place your mulling spices in a fabric bag and toss it into your pot. Stir occasionally, squeezing the bag of spices with a spoon like you would a tea bag.

Heat the cider until it is hot and flavorful; then set the temperature on warm.

Optional: Garnish the pot with apple and orange slices. Serve in a mug, garnished with a cinnamon stick.

Here&#039;s how you can start with fresh apples, and end up with some of the most flavorful Mulled Apple Cider you&#039;ve ever had–in about 30 minutes.

Instant Pot Mulled Apple Cider

¼ cup Truvia (sweeter of choice,

Cinnamon

Nutmeg

Cloves

Water

Place all ingredients into your Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker.

Cook under high pressure for 10 minutes, and let it release all pressure naturally or if you just can't wait, release remaining pressure at 15 minutes.

Open the lid and stir well.

Place a 48-oz bowl on the counter. Place a large strainer across this bowl.

Using a soup ladle, start to transfer the contents of your pressure cooker into this bowl.&nbsp;You don't want to just lift the inner liner and pour all of it at one go, as you have a good mix of apple pulp and liquid and it won't all go through at once.&nbsp;You could, of course, pour in batches.&nbsp;I use this ladle as it has a flat side on one side of it, making it easy to scoop out the last of the goodness from your pot.

Using the back of the ladle, mash in the apples a bit so you're getting some good apple pulp into the cider.

Continue in this fashion until you've extracted all the liquid and a good bit of the pulp. You could use this still-flavorful pulp for apple butter, or for ice cream topping. I plan to make ice cream with it.

Serve hot or cold, with a dollop of whipped cream for a vegetarian option, or a little coconut cream for a vegan/dairy-free option.&nbsp;

Pour cider into a Dutch oven or a large, heavy-bottomed stock pot ad turn burner to low and bring cider to just below a simmer.

Wrap mulling spices in cheesecloth and add to the pot of cider. Add cinnamon sticks, sliced oranges, sliced apples, star anise pods and maple syrup and give cider a good stir. Cover pot and allow cider to cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Keep an eye on the cider as you don't want it to come to a boil. This shouldn't happen, however, with the burner on low.

Remove and discard mulling spices and serve cider warm in mugs. Garnish cider with apple slices, cinnamon sticks and cranberries if desired.

Crock Pot Mulled Apple Cider

sized orange

cloves

rum or bourbon (optional)

Pour apple cider into a 3 1/2 quart crock pot. Add 4 or 5 cinnamon sticks. Punch holes in the orange with a toothpick and stick in whole cloves. You can add as many or few as you like. I usually just make several rings around the orange with the cloves.

Place the orange into the crock pot. Heat on low for about 4 or 5 hours. Remove orange and cinnamon sticks before serving. If using rum or bourbon just have guests add to their cup or glass how much they like and then add the mulled cider along with a cinnamon stick.

Makes 8 cups. This will keep for several days in the refrigerator and can be reheated in the microwave when you want to enjoy a cup. Your house will smell wonderful when this recipe is simmering in the crock pot.

Sugar, and spice, and everything nice... that&#39;s what Mulled Apple Cider is made of.

(Plus maybe a splash of something stronger after the kids are in bed for a spiked apple cider cocktail.) Simple to make, and slow-simmered for beautiful fall flavor.
