How to Make Hot Mulled Cider German Glhmost

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups of white wine (such as Riesling or Gewürztraminer), 2 cups apple cider, 2 cinnamon sticks, 6 whole cloves, and 1 teaspoon cardamom pods.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Do not boil. Simmer for 10-12 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse the liquid.
  3. Reduce heat to low. Add honey to taste (start with 2 tablespoons and adjust to your preference). Stir gently until honey is completely dissolved.
  4. Remove from heat and strain the mulled cider through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the spices.
  5. Garnish each serving with a lemon slice and a cinnamon stick (optional). Serve immediately and enjoy!
