How to Make Hot Gingered Cider

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups apple cider, 1 cup ginger ale, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon mulling spices (or 1 cinnamon stick, 2 cloves, 1 star anise), and 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Cover and cook for 5-10 minutes, or until heated through and fragrant.
  3. Remove from heat and let steep for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Strain the cider through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth, discarding the solids.
  5. Serve warm in mugs. Garnish with an orange slice, cinnamon stick, or extra ginger slice if desired.
