Hi there! Join Sarah on Facebook and Pinterest to keep up with what’s new at lifeshouldcostless.
MMMMMMM. Just thinking about how good this Cider was on Halloween makes me want to make a special trip into town just to get more ingredients so I can have some right now. However, it is SO RICH that it would not be a good idea to drink it on a regular basis…it’s definitely a Holiday only recipe. The kind that you will look forward to all year and definitely never be disappointed. The best part about this particular recipe is that it is so simple a child could easily make it… just what we need during the holidays, one less complex dish to prepare. It would also be a fun new addition to a cocoa bar.
I’ve seen a few versions of similar recipes out there, and this is my version. I also wanted it to be slow cooker friendly to simplify it, and here’s what I came up with.
2 (2 Quart) Spiced Apple Cider (1 Gallon)
It is super simple and my only suggestions are that you get to where you are going to be serving it before you make it. Otherwise it may slosh all over everywhere. It definitely would not do well in a car on the way to someone’s house. Also, that this recipe is going to serve a LOT of people.
I made it for me and three of my kids on Halloween and after we had had our fill, there was still 2/3rds of it left over. Now I know I need to half the recipe unless we are having a party… I am pretty sure I’ll be making this for Thanksgiving this year so only a couple of weeks before I get to enjoy it again. ~Sarah
