How to Make Hot Raspberry Cider

  1. In a 4-quart saucepan, combine raspberries, apple cider, orange juice, lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon stick, cloves, and star anise (if using).
  2. Gently stir the mixture to combine all the ingredients and dissolve the brown sugar.
  3. Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally while heating until the mixture begins to simmer (small bubbles rising to the surface).
  4. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and allow the cider to simmer gently for 10 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and deepen.
  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Carefully remove the cinnamon stick using tongs or a slotted spoon.
  6. Before serving, gently mash a few raspberries against the side of the pan with the back of a spoon to release extra flavor and color. (Optional)
  7. Serve the Hot Raspberry Cider immediately while it is warm and enjoy!
