How to Make Mulled Winterberry Cider

  1. Combine 6 cups of apple cider, 1 cup cranberry juice, 1 orange (sliced), 1 lemon (sliced), 1 cinnamon stick, 5 whole cloves, 2 star anise, and ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg in a large saucepan or slow cooker.
  2. If using a saucepan, bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. If using a slow cooker, cook on low for at least 2 hours, or until the flavors have melded.
  3. Reduce heat to low and continue to simmer (saucepan) or maintain low heat (slow cooker) for an additional 30 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse the cider.
  4. Remove from heat and taste. Adjust spices as needed – add more cinnamon, cloves, or nutmeg to your liking.
  5. Strain the cider through a fine-mesh sieve to remove solids before serving. (Optional)
  6. Serve warm in mugs, garnished with orange slices, cranberries, or cinnamon sticks.
