When the temperature drops outside, I like to warm up family and friends with steaming mugs of simple spiced cider. The recipe can easily be doubled for a larger group.Deirdre Dee Cox, Milwaukee, Wisconsin Ingredients:
6 cups apple cider or juice |
8 cinnamon sticks (3 inches) |
2 lemon peel strips |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
8 whole cloves |
4 slices red apple, cored and cut in half |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the apple cider, cinnamon sticks, lemon peel and nutmeg. Insert a clove into each apple slice; add to cider.
2. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 1 minute. Discard lemon peel. Ladle into mugs. Yield: 8 servings.
