1 tablespoon brown sugar

HOT CARAMEL APPLE CIDER

One morning when it was really cold and raining out, I was doing my Crossing Guard job at the corner I "work" at. A few yards from the corner is a small Espresso/coffee hut. After I got done and was getting ready to leave the corner, one of the girls who works at the espresso hut came up to me and asked me if I wanted either a hot chocolate or a Hot Caramel Apple Cider. I opted for the Hot Caramel Apple Cider. I was so cold and wet that I drank it hot without letting it cool off at all!! It was so good and it immediately started to warm me up. I could taste the caramel in it. A couple of days later when I got one on my own I asked what was in it and the girl who gave me my first one, told me. I think I have the right amounts of ingredients. You can add more caramel sauce and/or vanilla to suit your taste. This recipe can easily be multiplied to serve more people. I am sure you could use apple juice if you don't have apple cider on hand.

Time 5h

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 gallon apple cider
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 inches cinnamon sticks
6 whole cloves
1 orange, sliced
1/2 cup apple jack apple liqueur (optional)
1/3 cup caramel ice cream topping

Steps:

  • combine all ingredients except topping in a slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook on low setting 5-6 hours.
  • Serve in mugs, drizzling a teaspoonful of topping into each mug.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Not all apples are created equal when it comes to making apple cider. Some varieties, like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp, are better suited for cider because they have a higher acidity level. This acidity helps to balance out the sweetness of the caramel and gives the cider a more complex flavor.
  • Make your own caramel: Store-bought caramel can be used in a pinch, but making your own is definitely worth the effort. It's not as difficult as you might think and it gives the cider a richer, more decadent flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the spices: Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves are essential for giving apple cider its signature flavor. Be generous with the spices and don't be afraid to adjust the amounts to suit your own taste.
  • Let the cider simmer: Simmering the cider allows the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer it, the more flavorful it will be. However, be careful not to simmer it for too long, or the cider will start to lose its fresh flavor.
  • Serve the cider warm: Apple cider is best served warm, so make sure to heat it up before serving. You can heat it up on the stovetop or in the microwave.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooker hot caramel apple cider is the perfect drink for a cold fall or winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you're looking for a warm and comforting drink, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
