To “mull” a beverage is to heat it with other ingredients to impart a flavor. I mulled over several formulas before choosing this one with its pungent punch.
Ingredients
- 2 quarts apple cider
- 1 tbsp finely ground ancho or pasilla pepper
- 1 lemon, sliced very thin
- 1 orange sliced very thin
- 3 tbsp lemon juice
- 4 3-inch cinnamon sticks
- 2 tbsp whole cloves
- 2 cups dark rum
Servings: people
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan and heat, but do not bring to a boil. Simmer on low heat for 15 minutes. Strain the mixture through a sieve, pour into mugs, and serve warm.
