SLOW COOKER MULLED CRANBERRY CIDER



Slow Cooker Mulled Cranberry Cider image

Cranberry and apple juices are simmered with fruit and sweet wine to create a hot beverage that will warm you up from the inside out!

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 quarts Cranberry-Apple Juice (I get the bottle from Trader Joe's OR 1 quart each cranberry juice and apple cider)
1 orange (cut into wedges)
1/2 lemon (cut into wedges)
5 cinnamon sticks
1 to 2 tablespoons honey (to taste)
1/2 - 1 cup red wine
Rum (optional)

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients (except rum, if using) to the Crock Pot, and cook on high for about an hour and a half, or low for about three hours. Switch the Crock Pot to the warm setting, and it's ready to serve when you're ready to drink! You can also warm this in the stovetop. Let simmer very gently, covered, for about 30 minutes.
  • Ladle the cider into mugs (leaving the fruit in the Crock Pot). I like to throw another cinnamon stick in there for good measure. Those nice long cinnamon sticks that double as a stirrer would work even better.
  • Oh right, the rum! Add a shot of rum to your glass before you ladle in the cider, if you are rum-inclined.

Time 30m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups cranberry juice (32 oz bottle)
4 cups apple cider
1 (12 ounce) can apricot nectar
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon whole allspice
4 cloves, whole
1/4 inch piece peeled fresh ginger, thinly sliced
3 slices orange peel
3 slices lemon peel
2 -6 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup rum
4 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • In large pan combine cranberry juice, cider, nectar, spices, orange and lemon peel.
  • Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered 20-30 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, strain through a fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth.
  • Taste punch and sweeten accordingly. Apple Cider and Cranberry Juice vary greatly in sweetness - you may need no sugar, or you may need a little more than listed.
  • Add rum and butter, stirring until butter melts. Or, if having a non-alcoholic alternative is desirable, hold off on adding the rum to the entire punch and add 1 to 2 tbsp of rum to each mug, then fill to the rim with hot punch.
