Hot Apple Cider

 
The weatherman is calling for cold weather and lots of rain. I believe it is time to sit back, come inside and relax a bit with some hot apple cider. care to share a cup with me??






8 cups fresh apple cider or apple juice
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon or 2 cinnamon sticks
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
4 whole cloves
1 orange, cut into slices
8 cinnamon sticks
1 cup sweetened whipped cream                                                                               

Heat the cider, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and orange slices in a 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until the mixture is hot, stirring occasionally.                                       
Strain the cider into a heatproof pitcher or individual mugs. Garnish with cinnamon sticks and whipped cream, if desired.

    Oooohhh it looks interesting. I think I could actually do this when it's at least chilly here. I've never had cider but I do wanna try it.

    A good way to destress and lose a few kilos, too.

    I love making spiced cider. I usually squeeze a lemon and an orange into the apple juice before I add all the ingredients into it.
