spiced apple cider

This recipe for spiced apple cider is the best you will ever have. The addition of orange juice and brown sugar create an amazing flavor.

Spiced Apple Cider

apple cider

orange juice

brown sugar

cinnamon sicks

cloves

allspice

Mix together and bring to a boil

Simmer at least 30 minutes

The longer it simmers, the better it gets

As it brews longer it will form a "sludge" at the bottom of the pan - I just add more cider, let it brew a while longer and you are good to go!

Easy Instant Pot recipe for hot spiced apple cider (mulled cider) from scratch, with apples infused with the warming flavors of cloves, cinnamon, and ginger.

Hot Spiced Apple Cider - Mulled Cider

cinnamon

apples

Gala apples (or Pink Lady apples, cored and sliced)

brown sugar (: adjust to taste)

ginger (sliced)

water (or 6 cups, if you like your cider less dense)

orange

Tie the cloves and cinnamon sticks in cheesecloth to make a spice pouch. Core the apples and slice them into ¼-inch slices.

Turn the Instant Pot on. Add the sliced apples, brown sugar, ginger, spice pouch, orange peels (if using), and water into the Instant Pot. Stir well. Close the lid and set the vent to Sealing mode. Pressure cook for 15 minutes at high pressure.

Wait 10 minutes then release the pressure manually. Open the lid after the pin drops. Use a potato masher to stir and mash the apples.

Strain this apple mix through a strainer into a separate bowl, using a spatula to push down the pulp.

After you are done straining, strain the liquid once more, stirring lightly so the strainer holds back the pulp.

Serve hot on its own in mugs garnished with a cinnamon stick or add a dash of bourbon or rum to make a hard apple cider. For entertaining, select the &quot;keep warm&quot; mode on the instant pot and serve it straight out of the pot. Enjoy!

Hi Maya, you can use the apple pulp in place of apple sauce in this recipe: https://spicecravings.com/apple-cinnamon-cake. Hope you enjoy it!

Hey Aneesha, 

I just discovered your recipe and I can't wait to try it. In your note you talk about the pulp and how we can use it for a Apple Spice cake. Do you have the link of it? In the cake recipe, what is the amount of apple pulp should I use if it's not writen in the original recipe? 

Thank you!

This is my favorite instant pot cider recipe so far. I've made it a handful of times and it's always a hit.

I've started tweaking it by doing the following:
- 4 cloves instead of 8
- Adding a blood orange cut into 8ths (wedges)
- A LOT more water. No specific amount, I just fill until the 4L line in the instapot liner

The result is slightly a less spiced, citrusy, and less thick cider. Essentially I'm making it to drink cold.

If I want to drink it hot, though, I tend to stick with the original recipe (especially if I'm adding booze).

The point is this is a great recipe that's easy to adjust to your liking and virtually impossible to mess up!
