Bulmers Christmas Mulled Cider Recipe

Ahead of the Festive Period, new Guaranteed Irish Member Bulmers Irish Cider are sharing the recipe for their delicious Mulled Cider to spice up your Christmas.

Here's what you'll need:

• • 2L Bulmers Cider
  • 4-5 tbsp dark brown sugar
  • 4 orange peels
  • 2 apples, cut in rings & wedges
  • 6 cloves
  • 3 stair anise
  • 3 cardamom
  • 1/4 nutmeg, finely grated
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 vanilla pod, halved
  • 2 clementine's juice

Here's what to do:

1. Pour the Bulmers cider into a large pan on a low heat and let it warm through for a few minutes. 
   Add all the spices & fruit and turn the heat up.
   Once boiling, turn down to a simmer and leave to tick away for 5-8 minutes.
2. As everything infuses, you'll get the layers of flavour.
   Taste it and add a little more sugar as you like.
   You don't want it sweet; you just want the sugar and spices to have a nice flavourful balance.
   When you're happy with the flavours, ladle into glasses or mugs and serve warm.
3. To keep warm, place in a Soup Bain.
