Hot Mulled Apple Cider

If it's the Christmas season that means it's the perfect time for MULLED CIDER! Always a favorite with the whole family, mulled apple cider could not be easier to make:
 
1 gallon Dressel Farms fresh Apple Cider
2-3 sticks Cinnamon
1 TBSP Allspice
1 TBSP Whole Cloves                                   (adjust spices to taste...I put extra in!)

Combine all ingredient in a large pot. Simmer on Med-Low heat for 10-15 minutes to taste. Serve hot. 
 NOTE: Some recipes call for orange zest, brown sugar or a range of other ingredients. We've found, when using our real cider, that this is the best and easiest combination. 
 Pro Tips:  
1) Wrap the spices in a cheese cloth to avoid needing to strain.
2) After mulling, you can cool the concoction, return it to the jug and save it in the refrigerator. When ready to serve simply reheat it on the stove or in the microwave.
