Servings: 1 person
Calories: 109kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup apple cider
- 1 teaspoon mulling spices
Optional Add-Ins:
- cinnamon sticks
- orange slices
- peppermint tea bag
Instructions
- Add cider to a small or medium saucepan. Place mulling spices in a tea ball and add to cider. Add any optional add-ins.
- Heat cider over low heat until it begins to simmer. (Cider does not need to come to a full simmer. Do not bring to a boil.) Remove from heat and allow to steep for at least 5 minutes.
- Remove spices (and tea bag, if used). Pour cider into a mug and enjoy.
Notes
Easily multiplied. For larger amounts you may want to use a larger tea ball or a muslin drawstring bag.
If desired, spices could be immediately reused for a second batch, but they may be less flavorful. (I do not recommend storing the used spices for use at a later date.)
