How to Make Golden Cider
- In a large saucepan, combine 4 cups apple cider, 1 cup apricot nectar, and 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Tie 6 whole cloves together in a small square of cheesecloth or muslin using kitchen twine to create a sachet.
- Add the clove sachet and 2 cinnamon sticks to the cider mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Then, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Carefully remove the clove sachet and cinnamon sticks from the cider before serving. Discard the spices.
- Serve the Golden Cider warm in mugs.
- For an extra touch of elegance, garnish each mug with a cinnamon stick.
