Hot Mulled Cider
It’s been so beautiful outside lately but really cold! We had friends coming over and I wanted to have something warm and inviting to serve. I saw a recipe for Ina Garten’s hot mulled cider and decided to give it a try. Making this hot mulled cider couldn’t be easier and it tasted spicy, comforting, and so delicious! My son enjoyed a mug after walking our dog and it warmed him right up. The rest of us thought it was wonderful too. I plan on making this hot mulled cider again and again throughout the winter.
How to Make Hot Mulled Cider

I haven’t made any spiced cider in years…maybe I should try this year. Perfect for the rainy weather we have over here.
One of my favourites, it is delicious. We are off to the UK Monday will pop in when I have time. It is going to be a bit hectic! Have a good Christmas, Diane
It must be Christmas time. Your recipe looks perfect for this drink.
Eggnog is my favorite Christmas beverage, but I could be persuaded to enjoy your beautiful mulled cider! It’s been cold here, too, but really sunny for a few days!
I havent mad ethis but Im sure smell delicious Pam
I haven’t had hot cider and in ages but I have the best memories of it from when I was a kid. So perfectly spiced and comforting. I may just have to make a batch for Christmas this year!
