Spiced Apple Winter Warmer
This Spiced Apple Winter Warmer recipe is great for two reasons; not only does this cosy hot drink taste great but the warm aroma of the spices will fill your home with fanastic smell too. This tasty hot drink is a quick and simple winter warmer and contains all the flavours of the festive period. It's a recipe that I always use when the days start drawing in and the temperatures begin to drop. Cinnamon, citrus, ginger and the cloves mingle with hot apple juice in this fantastic non-alcoholic alternative to the classic Christmas cocktails.
Serves 3-4 people
Ingredients
to serve
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 orange slice
Method
In a slow cooker or on the hob, simmer the apple juice with all of the ingredients on a very low heat if using the hob and a medium heat if using a slow cooker.
Heat for at least an hour. The longer the ingredients are left to infuse, the better.
Serve hot with a slice of orange and a cinnamon stick.
