How to Make Spiced Lemon Apple Cider
- In a large pot, combine 6 cups apple cider, 1 cup water, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 cinnamon sticks, 1 teaspoon ground cloves, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely (about 5 minutes).
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and continue to simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and deepen. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and carefully remove the cinnamon sticks before serving. For a warmer serving experience, transfer the cider to a slow cooker or crockpot on the warm setting.
- Garnish with lemon slices and cinnamon sticks (optional) and serve warm. Enjoy!
