Delicious recipe below! ๐Ÿซš

The mulled cider I was giving out at the Spooky Geek Faire at Pandemonium Books and Games on the 27th was sooooo well received that the recipe has been demanded. I am delighted to share it!

For 3 quarts of fresh apple cider:

  • 25 cinnamon sticks

  • One large fresh ginger root, peeled and broken into 1-inch chunks ๐Ÿซš

  • ยฝ c. of cloves (or more, if you like intensity)

  • 6 mandarin oranges (because those are the best oranges!) sliced into thin slices, peel ON so it can add the lovely orange oil aroma to the cider ๐ŸŠ

  • 1 c. maple syrup, for that little extra splash of autumnal goodness ๐Ÿ

(Note on spices: cloves are a dark, incense-y-taste. The mandarin oranges add a brightness to counter it. So you can play with the amounts to balance to your preference. If youโ€™ve gone too hard on the cloves, you can do an emergency fix by pouring in some juice from any remaining mandarins, because that will quickly bring more brightness to counter the clove darkness. If you think Iโ€™m being poetic here, just try it. Thereโ€™s literally no better way to explain it!)

Bung it all in a huge ass pot or crockpot or witchโ€™s cauldron. Turn the head on LOW and simmer for four or so hours (making the house smell AMAZING in the process).

If having a party, serve in pretty little cups with the spices and orange bits floating in for decorative value. Otherwise, put it all through a sieve.

*Note: You can nom those simmered oranges! They taste SO DAMN GOOD.
