This mulled cider is perfect for a holiday party or any cold weather gathering. Simply dump the ingredients together and let it simmer. Add a shot of whisky or rum to dress it up for cocktail hour, or serve it straight out the crockpot. It’s tasty, comforting, and will make your house smell amazing.
Many slow cooker cider recipes begin with store bought juice, but the slow cooker is perfect for transforming fresh fruit into a flavorful beverage, with little more effort than chopping some fruit. You can make cider with little more than apples, cinnamon, and sugar, but with a few extra ingredients, this cider’s complex flavor will have your guests clamoring for the recipe. Quince or pear add a delicate, almost floral note, tangerine brightens and enhances sweetness.
