While I would call myself a coffee drinker through and through, I always love a good cup of hot apple cider come Fall. The warmth, the scent and flavour awaken my senses and just make my day that much better. I especially love getting them when we visit a local farm or pumpkin patch. It’s basically tradition at this point.<\/p>\n
Of course, getting one from my local cafe regularly can be costly (warm apple cider is surprisingly expensive). For years I’ve been saying to myself that I need to try and make some at home but I was always worried it would require too much work. I finally put some time aside for it and not only did I discover that it was super easy to make, but if you make a large batch, you can store it in your fridge for a week. Talk about saving money and efficiency.<\/p>\n

I also got my boys to try it to see if they liked it. Kyle gave it the thumbs up and Ryan made a sour face when he tried it. Nathan didn’t even want to try it. I think that next time, for the kids, I would add in some maple syrup to make theirs a little sweeter. Check out the recipe below:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
8 cups of Allen’s Apple Juice<\/p>\n
6 cinnamon sticks<\/p>\n
1 tsp whole cloves<\/p>\n
1\/2 tsp\u00a0ground nutmeg<\/p>\n
1\u00a0tsp\u00a0black peppercorns<\/p>\n
orange zest from a full medium size orange<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. Over Medium heat, add to pot cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, ground nutmeg and peppercorns. Let it heat, stirring frequently, for about 4-5 minutes until fragrant.<\/p>\n
2. Add in Allen’s apple juice and orange zest. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.<\/p>\n
3. Reduce heat and simmer for approximately 15 minutes.<\/p>\n
4. Pour cider through a fine mesh strainer directly into mug or glass container for storage.<\/p>\n
5. Serve with cinnamon stick and orange slice.<\/p>\n
