How to Make Apple Tea Hot Toddy

  1. In a 4-5 quart heavy pot, bring 3 cups of apple juice to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until syrupy and reduced to 1 1/2 cups (approximately 50 minutes).
  2. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the reduced apple syrup (1 1/2 cups), 4 cups of strongly brewed black tea (or your preferred tea), and 1/4 cup Calvados. Heat gently over moderate heat until warmed through. Do not boil.
  3. Divide the hot toddy evenly among 8 small cups. Garnish each cup with a cinnamon stick and a lemon twist (optional).
