EASY APPLE CIDER



Easy Apple Cider image

Simple spiced apple cider! I used to buy the spices already mixed at the grocery store, and they stopped carrying it this year, so I just made my own. This is great for a shower or get together and the slow cooker keeps it warm, so guests can enjoy it through the night. When it's done, it's great mixed with spiced rum and/or a slice of orange! Leftover cider is great cold too!

Tips:

- To make your cider extra special, use fresh-squeezed orange juice and apple cider. This will give it a more vibrant flavor. - If you don't have whole cinnamon sticks, you can use ground cinnamon instead. Just be sure to adjust the amount you use, as ground cinnamon is more concentrated. - If you want a sweeter cider, add more sugar or honey to taste. You can also add a few tablespoons of maple syrup for a richer flavor. - Serve your cider warm or cold, depending on your preference. If you're serving it warm, be sure to heat it gently over low heat until it's just simmering. - Garnish your cider with a cinnamon stick, an orange slice, or a sprinkle of nutmeg for a festive touch.
