How to Make Mulled Apple Cider

  1. Combine apple cider, cinnamon sticks, and the cheesecloth bag containing cloves, allspice, nutmeg, and ginger in a large saucepan.
  2. Place the saucepan over medium heat.
  3. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer gently for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even spice distribution. The longer it simmers, the more intense the flavor will be!
  4. Carefully remove the cheesecloth bag from the cider.
  5. Gently stir in the orange slices.
  6. Ladle the mulled cider into mugs.
  7. Garnish each mug with an additional cinnamon stick and an orange slice, if desired.
  8. Enjoy your warm and flavorful mulled apple cider!
