Warm Spice Cider Recipe

Prepare the Cider

In a large saucepan, combine the apple cider, cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, star anise, orange slices, honey (or maple syrup), and nutmeg.

Heat the Mixture

Heat the mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Do not boil.

Add the Brandy

Once the cider mixture is warm, remove it from heat and stir in the Laird’s Applejack Brandy.

Strain and Serve

Strain the cider to remove the spices and orange slices. Serve warm in mugs, garnished with additional cinnamon sticks or orange slices if desired.
